A remarkable dance tape: the sounds can be described as an acoustic carpet but hardly as music.
The two actual dancers have been reduced to marginal figures, to silhouettes.
Only the "gridpeople" really dance, skeletal figures as used in the preliminary work for computer animations. Are we seeing animations? Has a visual application been superimposed on the dancers?
A wide - and contradictory - scope encompassing dance/vi- deo/perception/digital art/ feeiing/expression/impression.
