Double Skin/Double Mind Interactive Installation Preview in Amsterdam
Emio Greco | PC, the Research Group Art Practice and Development at
the Amsterdam School of the Arts and Cinedans are very happy to
invite you to the Double Skin/Double Mind Interactive Installation
Preview which will be held on Friday 29th and Saturday 30th June from

of the Arts, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

The Interactive Installation Double Skin/ Double Mind is a virtual
version of the Double Skin/Double Mind workshop. This workshop, which
has been taught by dance company Emio Greco | PC since 1996,
represents the basis of the creative work of choreographers Emio
Greco and Pieter C. Scholten. Participants in this workshop are
challenged to discover new interpretations of their dancing body.
Throughout 2006 an interdisciplinary research group, consisting of
dance notators Eliane Mirzabekiantz and Marion Bastien, motion
capture researcher Frédéric Bevilacqua, cognitive neuroscientist
Corinne Jola, media artist Chris Ziegler, cinematography Maite
Bermudez, artistic research processes Scott de Lahunta and EG | PC
researcher Bertha Bermudez, has been focusing on this specific
workshop trying to analyse and document it.
The different data from each research area have been collected, and
interactive graphic visualisation tools and motion capture were re
implemented to create this preview of the Interactive Installation
Double Skin/ Double Mind. The current installation offers
participants the possibility of taking part in a virtual version of
the workshop in real time, while receiving verbal, physical and
peripheral information. By following a life size moving figure, the
participants will recognize, compare and understand their actions and
involvement in the practice of this workshop. They will travel
through the Double Skin/ Double Mind structure in a mental and
physical way, experiencing what the different layers are.
