Shown as a 7min documentation excerpt from a live performance at CounterPULSE in 2006.

First developed in residence at CounterPULSE in 2005, ‘these are my arms holding you, tearing you apart.’ was conceived and directed as a stage dance piece by paige starling sorvillo and created in collaboration with composers Liz Allbee and George Cremaschi. 

paige starling sorvillo/ blindsight is an interdisciplinary performance collaborative creating sense-saturated intermedia performance. Devised in and across the languages of immersive and interactive video, contemporary Butoh dance, and experimental music, blindsight brings together extraordinary collaborating artists from multiple disciplines to build fully integrated performance and installation works where each discipline’s voice is heard equally and where new dialects emerge across forms.
