Please don't feel free. Solo project proposal

1. Aim:

Exploring different kind of relations with the audience throughout bringing the incorporality of sounds and projections at the same level of importance of the corporeal human body.

2. Methods:

The audience will enter a neutral space. At the beginning there will be just a projection and a recorded voice starting describing a situation. The audience will be free to sit or to stand, scattered in the space. Among them, a performer will enter the space as it was a member of the audience itself.. In the projection it will then appear a person, the "thinking mind" who will refer to the audience and pick up one of them, the performer itself, who will be the same person as the projected one. The interaction between the two entities, the performer and the projection, will therefore start. The recorded voice, the representation of the projection's "thoughts", will engage a relation with the public.

3. Space:

I need a clean, square space in which i will be able to obtain a big projection on the wall and provide scattered chairs for those who will choose to sit. I've asked for the lecture theatre, but I'm still waiting for confirmation.
4. When:
30th April or 1st May.

5. Materials:

-Two spot lights in front of the projection's wall;
-Two amplifiers for the sounds;
-Projector;
-Support to hang the projector on the ceiling (if needed);
-Ladder for set-up.
