ASCENSION

ASCENSION is a videodance combining video animation by John Crawford, choreography by Lisa Naugle and music by Ron Mazurek.

It considers the possibilities of transcending boundaries through movement, responding to issues of fragmentation and making meaning across space and time. Contemporary dance choreography, captured on video, transforms into luminous videodance animation, accompanied by a soaring electro-acoustic soundscape. This piece celebrates linkages between dance, visuals and music.
