FORM DANCE PROJECTS AND RIVERSIDE THEATRES PRESENT

DE QUINCEY CO
METADATA

Danced by physics.

METADATA is an immersive performance work comprising two connected pieces PURE LIGHT and MOTHS & MATHEMATICS. Probing the latest developments in physics and cosmology, the artists explore a universe of colour, reverberation, particles and impermanence. METADATA invites you to delve into an intimate yet epic world revealing microscopic realms that catapult into a monumental universe.

Post-show ARTS-SCIENCE EXCHANGE: join in the conversation after each performance with the artists and invited scientists. A guest physicist, cosmologist or astronomer will elucidate some of the latest developments within the science field in the context of the performance. Facilitated by Associate Professor Ian Maxwell, Department of Theatre and Performance Studies, The University of Sydney.

If you were interested in the recent ABC TV series, Forces of Nature with Brian Cox, and the mathematics that makes a snowflake, you’ll love METADATA.
