FEELING THING

 

TACTILE, EMBODIED SOUND FOR DANCE

A dance film directed by Jo Bannon for Candoco dance company with sound design by Julie Rose Bower. Three dancers duet with three objects in an intimate and erotic piece set across the rooms of a single house. The concept for the sound was an inclusive sound design that works across sensory difference through a sensibility grounded in touch; touch between performers and their environments and the transitional resonances that sound through persons, objects and spaces.
