Below Red is a dynamic dance trio, physical to a point of exhaustion.
By capturing extreme physicality through digital video sensors, it
explores the human fascination and fatigue surrounding the overwhelming
pace by which technology can process, manipulate and control
information about us.
Below red is also a reference to Infrared, an invisible light that is
used in the performance. A light that is also used in survailiance
cameras to make them able to see in darkness.
Review by Vibeke Wern in Berlingske d. 11 march 2008: "Tina Tarpgaard is one of
the most
progressive choreographers here in Denmark when it comes to dance and
interesting use of interactive technology. And in 'Below Red' she once
again manages to unite dance and technology in an intellegent
manner,
so it gives both form and meaning while presenting new
perspectives
within the unvierse of dance."
Mette Garfield wrote in terpsichore.dk 17th of march
2008: "Tina Tarpgaard dazzled
with Below Red in Dansescenes recuring choreographic platform Short
Stories."
