Semaphore - Arts House
When was the last time you communicated in semaphore, morse code or binary?
Overview
Composer Kate Neal and director Laura Sheedy join forces to create an immersive dance piece that explores signalling, communication and (inevitably) miscommunication. The performance combines physical movement with visual and aural encoding systems, touching on the use of semaphore, morse code, pennants lights and binary code. Timothy Walsh choreographs dancers James Welsby and Briarna Longville to work alongside Sal Cooper’s animations. The piece also includes eight musicians and archival audio recordings of WWII signalmen.
Semaphore is one big interplay between light, sound and dance. Multimedia meets movement in exploring the transition of messages and how we make meaning from code.
