Axis Dance Company is redefining movement in its latest production 'Kinematic/Kinesthetic', which explores the fusion of art, disability, and accessible technology. Collaborating with engineering students from renowned universities, the troupe utilizes inventive devices like telescoping crutches and robotic hexapod legs to create new forms of expression. The production debuts as part of San Francisco's Exploratorium's After Dark series and reflects an ongoing journey toward inclusivity in dance. Choreographer Ben Levine aims to bridge the gap between theory and practice through this innovative approach, paving the way for a new dimension in performance arts.
"The prototyping process is a long one with many steps, reflecting the collaboration between engineers and disabled dancers to invent new movements for performing arts."
"Kinematic/Kinesthetic represents an ongoing investigation that melds art, disability, and access technology, showcasing the innovative spirit of Axis Dance Company."
