This evening brings together cyber and physical, machine and human, dance and music: a substantial link between the CDA of Enghien-les-Bains and IRCAM. Son of Ad@m by Veronika Akopova creates a visceral, hypnotic duet between a dancer and a robot. Online, Agustín Issidoro’s project of virtual sensibility, gathers four singers around a large table, driven by the passion of streaming video games, absorbed in hyperconnectivity, and multiplied through their avatars.
