Anima – iki from onformative on Vimeo.

‘»ANIMA« is a sculptural installation developed to explore the relationship between itself and its surroundings through the use of movement, texture, light and sound. The installation consists of a giant glowing sphere measuring two meters in diameter. This larger-than-life entity is suspended from the ceiling, as if in mid-air, in a darkened room. The luminescent sculpture acts as the sole light source for the space, drawing viewers in as it reacts to their presence. Visuals of a viscous metallic fluid envelop the globe’s surface.’

By mixing, reversing and eliminating restrictions of time and space, a new vision of the human body and mind is discovered.’ /

Pathfinder – a visual language to generate choreography from onformative on Vimeo.

Pathfinder: ‘As a response to limitations in dance, »Pathfinder« aims to contribute to the creative process of choreography.
