Last March, the Finnish National Opera and Ballet and the Digital Culture Festival Assembly put out a call to artists to propose creative technological concepts that take live performance to new heights. It was an invitation to reinvent the traditional experience of opera in the digital era.

Vitamin studio took first place together with Violet Disruption presenting an interactive show where music and dance interact with virtual elements creating magic.

Intangibles, explores the interactions between technology and music and the connection between the two that could lead to it’s creative expression. The search for the physical elements to digitize in order to create a mystical world gives birth to an interactive show that turns visible what was not, transforming energy and waves of movement generated by dancers and circ artists in vivid, graphic and flamboyant scenes alternating with deeper and relaxed scenes, following CircOpera’s plot.

We introduce mathematics and physics as the bases to represent the energy that music and dance leave behind with every movement and vibration. Energy that is alive, moving in the space that we perceive as air, even though we can not see it or feel it, it keeps flowing through the ways of nature.

See it live on fall 2022 at the Finnish Opera and Ballet.
