Digitopia (2016)

The Digitopia project is in collaboration with the Tom Dale Dance Company to explore audience engagement with graphics and generative music. The Tom Dale Dance Company developed Digitopia, a show – integrating contemporary dance, electronic music and digital technology – which is touring in 16 UK venues between February and April 2016.

The show is about Hex, a simple two-dimensional line who can make angles, but only up to six! His favourite shape is a hexagon. He’s happy with this, but one day he really wants to make a curve. With a lot of effort he learns to bend, then multiply, and suddenly he can create all kinds of shapes, eventually popping into three dimensions, discovering he can turn into anything he wants to.
