Producer on RING THE CHANGES+

RING THE CHANGES+ is an interactive dance performance created by London based deaf artist Chisato Minamimura in collaboration with Nick Rothwell and body>data>space.

Choreographing what Chisato calls ‘visual sound/music’, the project uses interactive technology developed by software artist Nick Rothwell (body>data>space) to engage hearing and non-hearing audiences in a visual and sense experience.

Presented at South Bank in September 2013.

‘When I danced with a group whilst the music was playing, I was asked if I could hear the music as my movements matched with the music. It was a very strange and interesting point for me as I did not hear music and was dancing with my feelings and emotions. This question influenced and inspired me to examine sound and music from a deaf person’s perspective.‘ Chisato Minamimura
