Aether

A live motion capture dance performance and VR experience, designed and choreographed from the ancestral use of sacred geometry and the four embodied elements: water, fire, earth and air. The dancers’ movements are tracked and translated to 3D avatars emitting different particle systems in real time, based on the visual properties and behavior of each element.

With Aether, the artists seek to create an immersive live experience through movement, interactive 3D graphics and music, crafting a cohesive narrative that juxtaposes ancestral knowledge with cutting edge technology.
