GESTURE4
A Pictures in the Sky Production
 
Improvisational Performance by
Noam Gagnon (dance)
Jamie Griffiths (visuals)
Viviane Houle (vocals)
Stefan Smulovitz (music)

The four artists came together to experiment with an interdisciplinary creative process, using movement improvisation, interactive softwares, extended vocals, laptop improvised musical compositions, acoustic viola, live camera feed, video footage, text, and large scale video projection.


Working the theme of Gesture, a full length work  (55 minutes) was performed at the ScotiaBank Dance Centre's Faris Theatre on June 1st and 2nd 2007 and subsequently by invitation at the prestigious international improvisation festival "International Festival Musique Actuelle" in Victoriaville, Quebec in May 2008.

This creative team remains in an ongoing collaboration.
