April 2021 - ongoing |

Hyperdirection is a series of interactive video performances by Orr Sinay and Dani Williamson
It is a system of choices and decisions where the performers edit a video in real time through the software MaxMSP. The synthesis of these real-time edits, both controlled and not controlled, ask to create and represent a new elusive and non-linear reality.
Choosing between a set palette of sounds and textures, the musicians negotiate their relationship to the sound threshold of the video mixer, seeking the invisible boundaries of the software.
The two videos are single shots of performer/choreographer Anat Shamgar walking between two intersections in the greater Dead Sea region. Her movement in and out of the frame and through the space was influenced by a score which instructed her to respond to her physical environment.
The performers all interact in a non-hierarchical relationship between sound and image, and the gray areas between the video frame and the viewer.
