microgravity
Cross disciplinery research - Supported outer space expereince
Microgravity is an action performance research about the human species on the way to outer-space. In a climate where only billionaires can buy a seat on a spacecraft, we want to democratise the access to astronaut-like experiences so that ‘regular’ people like all the rest of us can experience the awe of space and participate in the reflection of our future. Bringing together artistic disciplines and technologies such as Virtual Reality, Sound Art and Vertical Dance to create a performance that includes fantastical simulations and choreography of how we sense and move in space-like conditions.
Partnership and support
Microgravity has been partnered with the Animation Workshop Viborg and Khora: Virtual and Augmented Reality Studio for development of Virtual Reality applications. It received funding for residencies at Åbne Scene at Godsbanen and Vestyllandshøjskole from the Danish Arts Council for its research which ended in December 2022.
From 2023 the project is searching for production funds and presentation opportunities nationally and internationally.
