DUAL. ÁLVARO MURILLO / ARTOMÁTICO

DUAL is a real-time stage piece in which Álvaro Murillo (dance) and composer and sound creator Daniel Muñoz “Artomático” generate a dialogue between body, sound and space, through improvisation and technology.

DUAL brings to the stage the main themes of Álvaro Murillo’s doctoral thesis on the relationship among dance, creativity, and neuroscience, and shows us from an artistic perspective how the body manages dual tasks by combining creative thinking with physical action in a continuosly evolving environment

DUAL is an artistic performance of dance and music.

DUAL is an in situ real-time creation. The sounds of Álvaro Murillo’s moving body in the specific space are transformed by Artomático for a continuous dialogue related to the sonic characteristics of the architecture and the acoustics of the place.

DUAL is a live composition with a unique character in each artistic intervention.

ABOUT DUAL

DUAL is a real-time performance composition based on a doctoral thesis on creative movement as a tool to prevent motor and brain aging by dancer Álvaro Murillo. Body, mind, pain, action, movement, thought, perception, transformation, duality, improvisation, sound, and dynamics are the starting points for a live creation in situ.

The doctoral thesis on which the choreographic work is based is entitled: Motor and Brain Aging in Dual Tasks with Physical Exercise, Dance, and Creativity in People with Fibromyalgia. This thesis was written at the University of Extremadura by Álvaro Murillo.

This project has been selected by the New Media Laboratory of Trayectos, Zaragoza International Contemporary Dance Festival, for the first phase of research, with an artist residency at the Etopia Art and Technology Center (Zaragoza).

The work has also been in residence at the A Casa Vella choreography center (Amiadoso, Ourense).

It premiered at the Escenas do Cambio Festival in the Ciudad de la Cultura (Santiago de Compostela,Spain) on May 5, 2024.
