Drift

ANTONY HAMILTON

Drift is poetic mus­ing on the urban waste­land. The work ren­ders this as a haunt­ing, voyeuris­tic glimpse of a sub­ter­ranean peo­ple in limbo; a fleet­ing vision of the rise and fall of frag­ile cul­tures through the pas­sage of time.

Drift is a ‘drive-in’ expe­ri­ence for the audi­ence, and can be per­formed in a vari­ety of out­door urban locations.Robin Fox’s aus­tere sound track is trans­mit­ted via short wave radio to the audience’s car stereos. Kit Webster’s atmos­pheric pro­jec­tion for the space enhances the backdrop/architecture. The work fea­tures 4 dancers and is approx­i­mately 35 min­utes long. Audi­ence expe­ri­ence is almost 1 hour tak­ing in to account the travel times to and from the ren­dezvous point to the venue.
