Visual & performance development – 16/10/12

Yesterday I set up again in the dance studio again. This time I didn’t have an audience, or anyone else using the space at the same time, which allowed a much more careful calibration and a lot of possibility for experimentation.

The best discovery I have got from this session is that with careful calibration, the system will work with stage lights on me, provided they are very low. This allows for a much more visual performance, making the performance less abstract feeling.

This session did highlight an issue with set up time, however. To get the system working this well took a good 2 hours of calibration, between me and another person. This time needs to be cut drastically if I want to be able to tour the piece.
