Partnered with Hannah Victoria Collins ( NYU Class of 2024 )
Programs Used: Logic Pro, Ableton Live, Splice
Hannah's Prompt:
"I aspire to create and achieve catharsis through dance. I want the music and the dance to evoke an ocean of emotion in the viewer. It should feel like a chase. A slow build to climax, and a gentle coming down. I hear loud booming drums, slow, then fast tempo. I see a mixture of beautiful graceful movements, then quick sharp explorations of space. Letting gravity have her way at times, fighting against her at other times. A push and pull. This may be farfetched, but I want my dance to feel and look like a religious experience."
