Augmented Reality and Dance experience
Multiplayer, interactive. Available for tour in person and remote.
World Premiere | 5 October 2018 | Sadler’s Wells, London (UK) 0AR (zero AR) is a collection of short dance works in Augmented Reality (AR) suitable for all ages. It is based on the 2005 ground- breaking production zero degrees - a collaboration between Sadler’s Wells Associate Artists Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, Akram Khan and Nitin Sawney, with sculptor Antony Gormley.
AΦE wanted to bring the liveness and collective aspect of the theatrical experience into AR, reimagining the application of this technology. 0AR is therefore a communal experience where audience members using five connected devices can interact in real time with one another and experience extracts of the original work popping up in 3D.
0AR has toured to 15 venues and 12 cities in 5 countries. It was seen by 2289 audience members and 1923 people took part in our workshops, talks and demo events.
Presentation format: 10-minute experience suitable for all ages. A collective AR experience on tablets for 5 audience members. Suitable for any empty 5m x 5m delimitate space both indoors and outdoors.
