Based on Edwin Abbott’s novel “Flatland – A Romance of Many Dimensions”, this dance performance explores the connection between pre-produced with live-generated video works. One actor and two dancers are performing within an installation called “per_vilion” (from “periscope” and “pavilion”)that allows to blend two and three-dimensional imagery. The inspiring humorous novel literally takes place in worlds that consist of different amounts of dimensions. Sr. Cuadrado (Alberto Velasco) is the MC to the Lineas A and B (Kazue Ikeda and Alicia Soto).

per_vilion is a multi-functional spatial installation that has many options for usage, which can overlap on one evening. It is a media installation, a lounge and a performance space. The basic idea for this multi-purpose installation is to blur the boundaries between performer and audience, live-ness and per-produced, social
interaction and aesthetic action. The installation has been explored by several choreographers and can be used for workshop work as well as performances.
