5 Movements is a 10 minute immersive audiovisual experience, exploring the relationship of human body movements with space and time, using five different types of motion chiseled by five performers. By capturing fleeing phases of performers’ movements in succeeding phases of motion, the emotion and essence of each motion is incorporated in three dimensions. The experience itself connects the dots between traces of movements, a phenomena that human senses are most often unable to perceive in real time.

Inspired by several different types of dance from traditional tribal dances and ballet to street style, hip-hop andcontemporary performances, five movements of music unify various beats of the world, including African, ContemporaryClassic, Electronica, Instrumental Hip-hop and Asian. All this diversity from different parts and times of the world becomesone in an immersive motion choreography, through the kinetic displacement of bodies in space with time.
