Description

Cie Gilles Jobin (Dance Trail, 2020 Sundance Film Festival) returns to Sundance with this stunning showcase of biodigital live dance performance. Inviting audiences on a mesmerizing journey through cities and sidereal space, Cosmogony elevates the craft of dance choreography as the troupe using the company’s groundbreaking networked motion capture technology — integrates their movement to power avatars through morphing digital 3D environments in real time.

This live digital performance features 3 live dancers who are motion captured in Geneva and projected into 3D narrative environments in real time. A live discussion with the dancers and creative team will follow each performance.

Meet the artists behind all films and projects at the Festival on the Spaceship.
