Asami Morita + Nichole Arvin Present

Big Beat/Back Flow

The New York International Fringe Festival – FringeNYC

A Production of The Present Company




Asami Morita + Nichole Arvin present Big Beat/Back Flow, a new dance work with live music, as part of the 11th annual New York International Fringe Festival - FringeNYC.

The big beat has begun. Across the fence through a stark landscape of distorted and broken movement, dancers and musicians come together. Gradually, audience and performers unite to create a soundpainting, where every gesture dictates the movements and conducts the music. The action flows out from the stage to the viewers and back, making the audience part of the fun!

SOUNDPAINTING

Soundpainting is the universal live composing sign language created by New York composer Walter Thompson for musicians, dancers, actors, poets, and visual artists working in the medium of structured improvisation.
