The show
Winner of the second edition of the competition, Ninja Guru is a creative collective specialized in the field of art and interaction design. They collaborate with artists, designers, programmers, engineers, sculptors and makers according to specific projects. ‘She’, the show presented in streaming from 1 to 7 April 2021, is the portrait of a woman through an augmented dance performance, a choreographic writing in dialogue with digital technologies that embraces the viewer in a sensorial dimension: gesture tracking and recognition algorithms transform movements into shapes and sounds in an original fabric of electronic music and choreography.
