A multi-sensory, immersive installation exploring intimacy, connection, and Queer community, UP UNTIL NOW: midair for some time examines what the future of interactive performance might feel like.  In the midst of what may be the most seismic shift in how humankind communicates in our lifetime, many of us are starved for connection. Can technology heighten our emotions and make us feel more connected?

Featuring Up Until Now Collective’s short music film UpUntilNow (commissioned by Beth Morrison Projects) and wearable haptics technology provided by Music: Not Impossible, which translates sound onto the skin through vibrations, midair for some time features the collaborative work of two dozen artists from multiple disciplines. The work comes to HERE following its presentation in September 2022 at CPR – Center for Performance Research with the support of CPR’s Technical Residency program and a Brooklyn Arts Council Grant.

The installation is designed as a 20-minute experience for up to six people at a time, and is fully-accessible to all, including wheelchair users and members of the Deaf and Blind communities.

SENSORY SENSITIVITY NOTICE: This installation contains loud sound, bright lights and wearable haptics technology.
