A two programme showcase of recent video-dance works which celebrates the continuing interaction between dance and the moving image in our increasingly technological age.
Featuring contributions from some of the leading directors, dancers and choreographers on the contemporary dance scene, the selection highlights how closely the dance world is in step with parallel developments in film and the visual arts, particularly regarding the creative possibilities of digital technology.
Whether marshalling some of the latest video and computer effects, or relying on the classical virtues of camera work and editing, each piece brings a new perspective to the way in which dance can be presented.
