Rachel Ní Bhraonáin & Robyn Byrne 2022
As you stroll down the street, just after twilight, your eye is caught by a wash of colour inside an inconspicuous window. Behind the glass, a figure is consumed by other-worldly visions. She moves through landscapes both real and imagined, natural and digital, future meets present, together while alone.
Glimmer is a new dance installation that peeks inside an alternate future-reality, through an embodied reckoning with our physical and virtual selves. Using cutting edge AI technology, dance and music, Glimmer asks; how do we embrace virtual landscapes and digital lives while holding sacred our beautiful, human idiosyncrasies?
Glimmer premiered as part of Live Collision International Festival 2022
Glimmer is funded by the Arts Council and Dublin City Arts Office, with support from IPUT Real Estate Dublin. Additional creative production support from field:arts. Originally developed as part of Dublin Theatre Festival’s FUTURES.
