Description First performed by DanceWorks at the Studio, Victorian Arts Center. Retort II captured an atmosphere of the Australian People. Set to natural sounds recorded by Les Gilbert in Kakadu National Park, a series of hand painted slides by Tim Gruchy are projected in panels of light to reveal and conceal the dancers as things flittered through the light. The slides were superimposed over one another and were projected to create panels of black and panels o light.
