Nearing

Danced by Vera J. Blaine and featuring motion capture animation art by the Advanced Computing Center for the Arts and Design (ACCAD), Nearing is a unique videodance experience. Animation and live action video come together to expose the nearness of life and death as we experience it in our breath and pulse.
