What happens when dance, music, and light combine? A unique and open dialogue between the human body and technology, where the rhythm of the music transforms into performer's movements. FUNCTION FOLLOWS perFORMer is an experiment with new techniques that align the virtual world even closer to the real one.
What would you attempt if you knew you could not fail? Most certainly, you would follow your passion just like Georg Viktor Emmanuel did.
