For ReVision Dance Company’s ReVision 10 at Dance Place in Washington, DC, I worked as designer, creating virtual production and augmented-reality performances driven by motion capture. Live dancers shared the space with real-time rendered worlds and AR figures: movement was captured, composited, and played back into the room so that the physical and the virtual performed alongside one another.
