Hi, so this week we started group formations. I am in a group that is focusing around the idea of Newton Law of Gravity and pushing the boundaries of performance. Though at first I was reluctant about the idea, from researching ways to push the boundaries of performance such as showing anti- gravity by the use of mirrors, I have found myself excited about the project. There are many ways to push the boundaries of performance, in our case we have discussed the idea of having items stuck to walls and ceilings to symbolise the idea of gravitional pull. we have discussed the use of projection and mirrors to make what could seem impossible i.e. performing on the ceiling or wall possible.
this is an example of a mirror technique to show anti-gravity.
I really like the idea of using science within a piece, it allows the performance to have a dynamic edge to it.
