Hybrid multilocation and multilingual rehearsals focused on realtime telepresence performance making and multimedia theatrical production.

WITH THE HINTERLANDS AND GUEST ARTISTSPOWERHOUSE, PEJMAN FOUNDATION
AUG-OCT, 2017
During five weeks, 22 artists, musicians, producers, and film makers worked with “in-betweenness” as a state of being, an element of space, and a design statement to push the boundaries of bilocation theatrical collaborations.
Participants created bi-location multimedia theatrical sceneries with real-time sound design and intensive manual movements of handheld lighting, projection, and camera work with objects such as LED ropes, mirrors, clear globes, cardboards, and a parachute.
The sessions also included acting, dance, movement, and dialogue rehearsals with guest artists. Together, they shaped and conveyed feelings, stories, and emotions from place to place and delivered proactive and embodied documentation techniques.
The parallel sceneries, stories, and designs they made brought to life the terminologies that Poetic Societies has been using for online tehatrical productions such as extending, cutting, or blinding a scene on one end for creating interdependent or independent scenes on different locations.
