Dance

Dream Illusion Bubble Shadow is derived from the last chapter of the Diamond Sutra (“Al conditioned phenomena are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, shadows” and uses the negating logic of No to create the aesthetics of Emptiness. Time is structure. One and Zero. The body transforms into images. Movements on stage pass through virtual time and the actual space. Live guitar performs the no-sound of guqin. Synthesized electronic music interacts with body movements. In the five parts of Dream Illusion Bubble Shadow, dancers of Dance Forum Taipei together with artists from Hong Kong and Tokyo, co-create an atypical contemporary multimedia dance work that transforms the ordinary norms of presentation – introduction, elucidation, transition and conclusion.
