<p>Bangalore Fictions, a playful and poetic alliance of technology and dance, choreography and digital art, is all set to take off in the City on March 18.<br />The event will be brought alive by n+n Corsino Creations, an interactive choreographic team created in India and France. <br /><br />A series of 12 fictions becomes the base of the choreographic pattern and will be presented as an exhibition. One among the team members, author Anjum Hasan said: “I contributed 12 poems in prose for Bangalore Fictions, each text connected to a particular, ordinary, everyday experience of Bangalore. </p>.<p>These could be the languages one hears in the City, the feel of a railway station at night, the people one sees in a mall, the way an outsider to Bangalore might negotiate it, the different ways old-timers remember the City, and so on. At the same time, these texts are philosophical reflections on the very idea of a city and what it might mean to live in one.”<br /><br />Nicole and Norbert Corsino, the choreographers, worked on the new creation based on artistic and technology exchange with Indian partners they met in Bangalore, Ahmedabad and Delhi. <br /><br />Their choreographic fictions are presented in the form of films and installations, without the real presence of dancers. Each of these installations is the result of a choreographed sequence, danced live and filmed from all angles. </p>.<p>These non-conventional composers of choreographic fictions lead us into a lighter world, almost aquatic, where the spectator can interact with certain works and dance while caressing images in movement on a touch screen. <br /><br />Among the other participating artistes are dancers Revanta Sarabhai and Pooja Purohit, calligraphist Amit Kharsani, illustrator Tudu Saheb Ram and five musicians from the Darpana Centre for Performing Arts.<br /><br />The performance will be held on March 18, from 7 pm to 9 pm at GallerySke, 2, Berlie Street, Langford Town. The related works will be on display at the gallery till March 21, from 11 am to 7 pm. <br /><br />The event is organised by Alliance Française de Bangalore in association with GallerySky, the Embassy of France in India and the Institut Français.<br /><br /></p>
