Action Station #1 - The Abyss

The Abyss looks at current research done at the ocean's abyssal layer. Elements, qualities and dynamic potentials of the ocean are identified while translating the behavior of the overall system into movement, sound and poetry.

The 40-minute,site-specific piece was performed outdoors to spectators suspended from a bridge overlooking the ravine. The Divers, work with a looping system of pulleys and ropes connected to a potentiometer receiving input sent to a digital model of an abyss. The choreography, is triggered by information received from the model. Traditional Hawaiian chants merge with strains of Jacques Cousteau to emerge as a singular vocal chant alongside the song of the deep-sea worm, the oldest living creature on earth its 'voice' re-composed for a human voice.

Action Station #2 - The Desert

The Desert recreates a desert environment modeled after scientific data and may be viewed both as a multi-media installation and a vocal/dance/electronic music performance.

In a 70-minute journey through space and time, Grisha Coleman's performance installation, immerses audiences and performers in a fully synthetic environment comprised of audio and visual media, digital movement analysis, robotics and live performance. This setting recreates a desert ecosystem simultaneously made up of a virtual and ?real? space, reflecting on how one affects the other.
