Description
Brandon Boan, projections, computer screens, reflections | Part of the inaugural Stockholm Fringe Festival (STOFF), The Dreams of Alexander Von Humboldt featured an onsite compositional situation by Brandon Boan, Abby Donovan, and Tom Hughes of the 181. Simultaneous live performances or webcasts by artists Brittany DeNigris (USA), Julianne Hamilton (Japan), Art Johnson (USA), and Drazen Vitolovic (Croatia) were projected and reflected throughout the performance. Webcasts of the situation at STOFF itself were also simultaneously brought back into the compositions (projected, reflected, infected), creating video feedback and looping layers throughout the two-hour piece.
