BOUNDLESS BODY

DOCUMENTARY COMING SOON

The Boundless Body live performance allows the audience to step away from the all too distracting cacophony of spoken words into a sensory haven created by neurodivergent artists. We invite you into the visceral sphere of someone who processes the world through their creative means, hoping that we can experience one another's uniqueness.

Sophisticated sensors strategically attached to the arms and legs capture XYZ positional data, allowing for precise generation and sculpting of sound & visusals in real-time.

The audio & visual landscape is crafted through a careful blend of several elements, including internal dialogue, sensitivity to light, emotional resonance, narrative depth, dynamic range, and the artist's muscle memory.

The soundscapes emerged from improvisation and the vocals of Elizabeth Arifien, combined with a variety of sound effects and innovative guitar manipulations, creating a rich auditory experience that transforms physical movement into an expressive sonic journey composed by Robert Lye and sound design by Derek Szato. 

This piece will take us into an ethereal space; unifying dance, vocals, costume, technology and music.
