Memory Release DIGITAL ARTS
Isabel Rocamora
FREE
Anti-gravity artist Isabel Rocamora creates a live solo promenade performance piece. Memory Release explores the physical process of accessing and experiencing visual memories. The piece draws from the mechanisms of encoding and recalling and their relationship to brain and body in Neuroscience and Eastern Medicine.

Rocamora creates an intimate environment where the promenade audience directly experiences the journey of live data through an external nervous system. The data is originated by the hanging body and runs through motion capture and processing software resulting in video representations of visual memory traces. As the body remembers, so it edits its own memories live, intrinsically connecting the physical with the immaterial.

Rocamora collaborates with programmer Chris Fayers and research artist Camila Valenzuela to create a meditation on the human inner landscape.

This event is part of RESPOND.
RESPOND is a cutting-edge programme of events, talks, demonstrations and discussions exploring the dissolving boundary between physical and virtual space. Respond presents a glimpse of future environments for play, living, relaxation, social connection, education and work. Here is an unprecedented opportunity to find out how data, spaces and human bodies co-exist and interact whilst we are shopping, netsurfing, clubbing, at our PC or visiting theatres and galleries. Respond will infiltrate the city presenting astonishing artworks where you least expect them.




( 6.30pm & 8pm with post show discussion.)
