Enra- "Pleiades"


This video of a mesmerizing & beautiful dance routine by Japanese troupe Enra shows the wonderful possibilities of interacting with digital media.
 
We are beginning to blur the lines between "real" & "virtual" by directly interacting with light.


The performance is called "Pleiades," after the star system also known as "The Seven Sisters," which is hinted at in the photo above. This star cluster was used as part of a seasonal calendar for many ancient civilizations.
