Visible Cities
An intereactive architectural performance installation for the AIA NYC Party @ the Center October 12th, 2006
Visible CitiesNew York, NY, October 12, 2006 - Visible Cities Architectural Performance Installation by Dana Karwas and Liubo Borissov for the Party@the Center featuring Andrea Haenggi and the AMDaT Dance Company."
The setting for Visible Cities is a projected environment of responsive dynamically generated structures, originating from an interpretation of crowd movement and ambient sound. As time progresses the structures grow vertically, as people move through the space the structure develops laterally and increases in complexity. In addition, dancers/ agent provocateurs embedded in the crowd sporadically emerge and perform, their movement and actions affecting dramatically the current state of the environment, before they disappear and merge with the crowd. In the end the living structure is frozen, a sculptural and architectural record of time and social activity. Dancers Einy Aam, Jeff Crumrine and ANdrea Haenggi. dk22.com/cities
Made possible with the generous cooperation of the AIA NY and the Center for Architecture.
Many thanks to the Bitforms Columbia Class, Tony Schultz, Andrea Haenggi, Devin Vermulen, Ashley Byler, Clarisa Diaz, Johnny Chiu, the Center for Architecture and all of the friends who attended the event.
