In the multimedia dance workshop, we will take the first steps into this mixed arts technique, learning how movement and lighting resources have a meeting point on expressing through musicality. Although we part from a solid contemporary dance technique, the workshop emphasizes on the physical expression, different body dynamics and precision in working downbeat, as well as understanding how the integration in the videoprojections works.
