Jyväskylä Dance festival: Screensaver Series

Screensaver Series is a live dance and sound installation by J Neve Harrington involving 5 dancers and sound coding by Jamie Forth. The dancer’s perpetual movement evokes the patterns and continuous activity of a screen-saver, referencing images from the natural world, care-taking, metamorphosis. The work offers a meditative space and an alternative attentional contract of activity within inactivity of hypnosis.

Screensaver Series is inherently a relaxed performance set-up and welcomes multiple ways of experiencing the work, including moving around to experience the movement and multi- channel sound from different perspectives.
