“Okeanos” – Capacitor Dance Company
http://www.capacitor.org/okeanos/
So excited to announce the premier performance of Capacitor Dance Company’s “Okeanos”. I was a contributing artist and technical consultant for this amazing show exploring the earth’s oceans and our impact on them.
Okeanos is a multidisciplinary portrait of the ocean as body, resource, metaphor, and force. It is a performance to inspire and educate audiences about the ocean and connect them directly to ocean conservation.
Okeanos features the distinctive artistic and technical components that Capacitor has become known for – inventive and articulated dance vocabulary, contemporary circus, abstract structures that mirror nature, poetic integration of audio/video multimedia, sculptural costumes, scientifically supported content, and conservation partnerships.Capacitor’s Okeanos premieres on April 12 – 15, 2012 in Fort Mason’s 30,000 square ft Herbst Pavilion. Under the Artistic Direction of Jodi Lomask, Capacitor’s four dancers, four circus artists, and two musicians perform within a constructed oceanic video/aerial/performance environment. Interviews with scientific advisers Dr. Sylvia Earle and Dr. Tierney Thys punctuate the electronic sound score.
