Swing 2.0

Presented and supported by Garter Lane Arts Centre, Waterford, The Mac, Belfast, Bridges Math Art Conference, Canada: Swing 2.0 is a ten-minute quartet experimenting with time, the power between the dancer and the score by taking on the idea of a pendulum swing. The piece aims to create a powerful, feminine embodiment of maths in motion. Swing 2.0 experiments with using a strict mathematic score and identifying how we can bring the subjectivity of the dancers to something so linear. Failure reveals their humanity as their movement technique becomes lost and frantic. The variations of speed in the sound challenge the power dynamic between the score and the dancer.
