ABOUT
\n<\/strong>Originally, TANZMANSCHINE<\/a>, the techno dance performance, was slated to tour various theatre festivals. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the project came to an abrupt halt. Seizing this obstacle as an opportunity, I decided to adapt the piece to a digital medium, ensuring its accessibility to anyone with an online connection. This coincided with a necessity to show the perspective of the machine, which remains invisible to the spectator of the performance. Together with Pieter Vandenhoudt, we developed Tanzmanschine – The Film<\/strong>. The film thus shows the performance from both the perspective of the machine and the perspective of the spectator.<\/p>\n

This techno dance film<\/strong> aims to reveal the hidden technological layer that drives the live performance. While audiences witness Niek’s physical struggle in the metal arena, the machine’s computational processes remain unseen. The film bridges this gap by documenting both human and digital experiences simultaneously.<\/p>\n

CINEMATIC APPROACH<\/strong>
\nThe film stands as an independent work while remaining connected to the performance’s core themes of physical limitation, technological control, and liberation through sound.
\nThe cinematic approach made it possible to layer the light in multiple ways over the performance. The geometric shapes were ideal to experiment with. We could add multiple ghost-like Niek’s to highlight aspects of speed and nightlife blur. Adding darkness and a different lighting pop was a fun experiment during the creation process. Completing the transformation of the live techno dance performance<\/strong> into a visual film exploration of human-machine dialogue.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
