////////////////////////////////////

Depuis plusieurs années, les images envahissent l’espace scénique. La présence des écrans sur la scène a été maintes fois remarquée et commentée. Pourtant, l’avénement d’une scène-image – scène et écran se superposant jusqu’à se confondre – n’a que rarement été pris comme objet d’étude. Dans la scène-image, les interprètes et/ou les spectateurs sont immergés dans des images sans écran, en 3D, grâce à divers stratagèmes optiques, à des machines de vision. Le numérique, avec l’interactivité, permet d’agir sur ces images, de les modifier, en temps réel ou en temps différé. Les images deviennent des espaces habitables. Certaines mises en scène de Mark Reaney, Teatro Cinema, Dumb Type, Victor Pilon et Michel Lemieux, Kris Verconck, Kitsou Dubois, Gilles Jobin, Jean-Michel Bruyère… sont caractéristiques de cette démarche.

Our investigations of structure and energy will uncover new ways of understanding, releasing and toning core, low back, rotation of the legs–and much more–with a variety of sequencing including core to periphery, head to toe, and from the ground up.
