City College Center For The Arts Presents The World Premiere Of LIABLE TO CHANGE

Zullo/RawMovement presents Liable to Change on Friday, February 22, 2019 at 7:30pm, and Saturday, February 23, 2019 at 2pm and 7pm at City College Center for the Arts, Aaron Davis Hall, 115 Convent Avenue, New York, NY 10027. Tickets are $25 and can be purchased at http://citycollegecenterforthearts.org.

Liable to Change utilizes movement, architecture, sound, light and interactive technologies and filters it all through the Cynefin Framework to inform the piece by delving into states of simplicity, complicatedness, complexity, chaos, and disorder. Investigating systems of order and logic exemplified in the writings of DaVinci, Kepler, and Plato and the concept of "the golden mean" as well as the Fibonacci sequence are presented within the movement, architecture, and visual elements of the work illustrating the dichotomy of chaos and logic.

Zullo/RawMovement creates performance experiences using movement, architecture, sound, light and new media to create whole environments exploring concepts drawn from the cultural landscape intended to ask questions and provoke discussion. RawMovement shares these dances in the hopes of eliciting an emotional response to a movement-based experience in both traditional and non-traditional performance settings and environments expanding the boundaries of where and how performances are experienced. Using both set choreography and structured improvisation performance works are created and shared with as wide and diverse an audience as possible.

The conceptual ideas for the work are shaped by the current cultural climate where what is seen and known as truth, logic and order is constantly challenged and the feeling that multiple realities are coexisting with different narratives are constantly struggling against each other. The piece begins simultaneously in four separate locations challenging the audience with what can be seen and known and culminates in the same space. The audience is invited to create the landscape of the performance by placing the set pieces at random in the theater space at the start of the work creating an unexpected landscape that the performers must navigate and renegotiate throughout every performance of the work. Composer Darren Solomon is performing and creating the score in real time during the work and Media Artist Kat Sullivan is creating and responding to the performers as well.
