Ego

I saw a kinetic sculpture called Ego. It was paired with characterless ambient music that deadened the experience of the installation. But this sculpture - on display in a New York art gallery - was originally made by DRIFT for an opera and dance production of L’Orfeo by Monterverdi. In this video we see the sculpture being used during dance rehearsals for the opera. It’s wonderful how the dancers bring the sculpture to life. Also interesting, an interview with Studio DRIFT on their mission to use technology to connect people to nature.
