'nino' becomes a single or dual-player, interactive installation, expanding the creative possibilities for dance performance by transposing to a different domain - into a game world. due to the cost and difficulties of touring with five dancers to venues in three different countries for short durations, we decided to work on converting the 45min live performance into a game-like experience after the residency.  in the game version, the user becomes, at once, the author and the viewer of the artwork in this speculative simulation.  developing the original scenes from the live performance into full 360 environments from a cinematic fixed-camera viewpoint. to make the experience have a longer ‘playablility’, we port over scenes developed from our precursor project, wow + flutter.  we use motion capture of our dancers to animate the avatars, turning them into collectable characters. players have a third-person viewpoint, controlling one avatar that can roam freely through thirteen worlds, ‘collecting’ both avatars and dance material from other figures in the landscapes. the player can then inhabit those avatars and replay the dance phrases. Each world features two alternating soundtracks from both our new musician, marcus villaca, and our wow + flutter musician, nic nell.
