Who is the instrument, who is the operator?
The space moves the dancers. In turn, their movement generates sound. The sound, meanwhile, redesigns the space. The result is a delicate interplay of cause and effect, but through it all, the question lingers: who is the instrument and who is the driver?
The Bone Algorithm is an interdisciplinary performance with a kinetic installation that produces music through the movement of the dancers. Can the inner workings of Artificial Intelligence be reversed into Natural Intelligence? Amos Ben-Tal, Gosse de Kort and Salvador Breed once again join forces and explore the theme of 'the devolution' of technology.
The performance makes us think about a possible future, in which a tipping point is reached and technology is imitated by existence. With an interweaving of powerful dance, sound and image, these three artists create an immersive and thought provoking experience for the audience.
OFFprojects is a collective of former dancers from the NDT and Batsheva Ensemble that orbits around the work of choreographer and musician Amos Ben-Tal. In recent years, OFFprojects has successfully collaborated with interdisciplinary artist Gosse de Kort (Interval, 2021) and sound artist Salvador Breed (PART, 2022). In both pieces the makers found a symbiosis of their art forms and created innovative performances. Interval was nominated for the prestigious Zwaan Award for most impressive dance production and PART was named by the press as one of the best performances of 2022.
