THE DAEDALUS PROJECT - FRINGE WORLD PERTH 2017

The opening of THE DAEDALUS PROJECT will start at 6pm sharp, Friday 3rd Feb, at the Ferguson Foundry 281 Guildford Rd, Maylands, where maps will be handed out and procession to the various performances will begin.

The 'Stelarc' and 'StickMan' performance will be held on Friday 3rd February as part of the opening of DAEDULUS at 7:30 pm and on Saturday 4th February from 10:00-3:00 pm at Chrissie Parrots Studio, 4 Sussex Street, Maylands. 'StickMan' will continue to perform as an installation until 17 February.

'StickMan' is a minimal but full body pneumatically actuated exoskeleton that generates simple gestures. Sensors on the arms, leg and spine of 'StickMan' produce signals as it moves, triggering sounds. The sounds are composed by the automated and involuntary choreography. Six speakers circulate the sound. The performance will be documented in 360.

Sound component is by Petros Vouris. 'StickMan' is engineered by Tim Jewell. Programming by Steve Berrick. Video production by Steven Aaron Hughes. Special thanks to Rodney Parsons.
