Description

Nerve Engine is a free, 10 minute experience which offers audiences the opportunity to generate elements of the performance with wireless iPod gloves and infrared. Created by acclaimed inter-media artists Bonemap, this interactive, new media dance experience transforms the interior of the venue into a participatory space where the audience are at the centre of collaboration within a virtual landscape cosmology.
Participants generate elements of the live performance through their own movement-based interactions, creating a magic geography and socially engaged terrain.
