CIE NICOLE SEILER IDN 2015: Shiver

After the trilogy, which deconstructed the relationship between movement, sound and image (Playback, Amauros, and Small Explosion with glass and repeat echo) Shiver will question reality itself.  A complex video system projects live onto the bodies their own replicas, stylised with computer animation.  We are building a dubious atmosphere, suspenseful, that plays with the codes of film noir and horror movies. By experimenting with the discrepancies between projections and reality, Shiver troubles the senses, generating suspicion and disquiet.  The set becomes – in a playful manner – a mirror of a most profound and even physical dread. The universe in tension:  shudders guaranteed.
