Journey through art genres and languages, from the comfort of shiny shelves to the darkest folds of skin and muscles. The work brings on stage butoh dance, artistic and non artistic disciplines, bodies as artworks and artworks as bodies. A reflection of the present for the future darkness to come.

Daniel Williams, Dresden-based Scottish composer, specialises in score and sound-design for dance and theatre. Daniel developed his distinctive “embodied” approach to sound art. After demonstrating it in award-winning production “Ketzal” in 2007, Daniel went further into using contemporary technologies to create a real-time interaction, which some describe as taking the sound straight out of the performer’s body.
