WE WANT GOD NOW
Originally created for “We Want God Now”, a performance work of UK dance company “Man Act”, featuring Michael Ashcroft.
The video and most of the audio is composed from ~10 seconds / video samples from a seven minute dedicated performance for camera of dancer and performer Michael Ashcroft recorded in 1995 in Cardiff.
After the collaboration with MAN ACT the piece became a standalone work, a one hour long audiovisual single screen composition.
