PAN + TILT

Music & sound design by Nic Nell (Casually Here)

VR Screen recording extracts from immersive project PAN + TILT, an ongoing collaboration with virtual realist artists Gibson/Martelli and costumes by fashion designer Zi Wonderound. The project combines motion capture dance performances, AI generated characters, virtual world and character design and modelling, music, sound design combined with costume design and hybrid physical and virtual performances.

Premiered and ‘Best Immersive Art and XR Award’ nominee at the 66th BFI London Film Festival Expanded 2022.

‘In PAN + TILT Choreographer Ruth Gibson and VR artist Bruno Martelli have joined forces with composer Nic Nell (Casually Here) to invent a holographic universe inspired by the extraordinary legacy of Joan Skinner, an American choreographer, teacher and former dancer with the Martha Graham and Merce Cunningham companies. In this exciting world premiere, Gibson/Martelli creates an experience for two visitors at a time, placing them into a visual landscape that triggers exploration by means of motion-capture techniques and machine-learning processes. Release your inner dancer and re-connect with the physical world by exploring a virtual one.’
