CONCERTS & PERFORMANCES at  DIVAN DU MONDE

miniatures is a new concept of contemporary video-dance, coming from France, originally designed for the web as a dance-on-line project. French choreographers Magali & Didier Mulleras, and Nicolas Grimal (mul-timedia) have created in 1998 this weird and unruly little cyber-baby, born of Dance, Digital Images and New Technologies. Their dance writing is a melt-ing-pot of various influences and styles, for which they have fun to mix, and mix again. Using their web site www.mulleras.com. and various techniques like CD-Rom and video, they give dance a brand new dimension. The Mulleras Dance Company will present the two actual phases of their project: multimedia achievements of phase 1 during the Symposium and a stage performance of phase 2 at the Divan du Monde. www.mulleras.com
