Psychosomatic experience through dance and with the use of virtual reality devices, to reflect on our extreme states of consciousness - with John Desnoyers-Stewart (Simon Fraser University Vancouver) and Daniel González (Omnipresenz & BeAnother Lab).
Each traveler embodies Eve to reach “extracorporeal” destinations in virtual reality, wrapped in stories written with movement, waiting to be relived. Eve invites us to take up a discourse that seems forgotten: that of empathy.
