Buffer Overrun

A multi-disciplinary dance performance by Ginger Krebs, featuring dance by Sabrina Baranda, Elise Cowin, and Joanna Furnans, sound by Joseph Kramer and lighting design by Christine Shallenberg

Buffer Overrun addresses information as a liquid and mobile force that tends to erode the importance of place. It explores ways that bodies orient toward multiple, shifting centers, and wonders at the consequences of this contemporary form of vertigo. The choreography and sound incorporate phase shifting, structures based on code, slow motion, and spiral patterns derived from optical illusions. In the midst of acceleration and overwhelm, Buffer Overrun marvels at human adaptability and contemplates patience as something revolutionary.

Buffer Overrun has been supported by a Chicago Dancemakers Forum Lab Artist Award, the City of Chicago's Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events, and a project grant from the MAP Fund. For more information, please visit www.gingerkrebs.com.
