Electric Japan 2022: Intensional Particle Online

(This is a past event and is no longer running)

Recognized as one of the leading figures of the Japanese avant-garde art scene, choreographer and multidisciplinary artist Hiroaki Umeda, presents an exclusive screening of his dance film Intensional Particle Online.

When waterfalls and rivers are seen from afar, they seem to maintain static forms; yet, when one zooms into the same objects in a microscopic level, it is noticeable that they are consisted of ceaseless motions such as swells, waves, vortex and crosscurrents. Based on this creative concept, in Intensional Particle, Umeda reinterprets the particles in space as not static molecules but rather as ‘active particles (or, mass points)’; and, visualizes, in space, the ‘intensional force’ that particles conceal.

 Intensional Particle Online will be running continuously in our auditorium.
