Lauren Mandilian

Information Overload Performance

Information Overload explores how we as a society relate to technology. This piece was created as a Master’s thesis in digital media and brought together different departments of Drexel University including Digital Media, Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, Music Industry and Performing Arts. Information Overload explores opportunities in which digital media can be incorporated into a modern dance performance. The piece includes animation, projection on fabric, real time video filtration and motion capture. Click here to see photos from the performance.

“Lauren Mandilian choreographed Information Overload to first-rate music by John Avarese and Matthew Baker. She also created splendid animation with letters falling like rain down the screen and architecturally dissecting lines. Five dancers did their turns nicely until a fatal error message appeared on the screen. In this dance there were no errors.”
