Deepstaria
In Deepstaria—a title inspired by an enigmatic species of jellyfish with a stellar-sounding name—McGregor conjures a highly sensory, meditative pure dance and sound experience which reflects on our profound relationship with the void and our own mortality.
Since the beginning of time, humankind has had a fascination with the void. From deep sea to deep space, these dark, mysterious zones ignite both our imagination and our desire to explore our world to its limits.
Utilising Vantablack Vision technology on stage to create unfathomable darkness, McGregor visions an environment that disturbs traditional hierarchies of perception.
In this void, acoustic imagery and animative music by Oscar-winning sound designer Nicolas Becker and renowned music producer LEXX create a sonic dreamscape that is continuously recomposed and performed by revolutionary digital audio engine Bronze AI*—thus re-configuring the relationship between live dance and live recorded music in real time.
