A merging of the latest advances in digital art projection technology with the internal principles of dance Andrew Jones and Phaedra Ana are pioneering the emergence of a new type of interactive expression which has been termed fourth density dance: a unique fusion of live painting and live movement that has naturally emerged from a multilayered joint venture that pushed individual boundaries. On stage, fluidity of motion intuitively blends in with the flow of different dynamic objects moved around in space; while using a combination of proprietary software and custom digital hardware the visuals projected onto the screen behind organically tune into this motion, accentuating the dancer’s movements as they follow them in real time until a new level of spatial depth is achieved. Each performance inherently reflects unified intentions as a joint frequency between the two artists that is palpable in the intensity of the space created in the auditorium. Using sound tracks of the latest contemporary underground sound, the couple are capable of creating a physical and visual audio state of synaesthesia that has never been seen before – and which has the potential to solidify into an entirely new form of artistic expression with an infinite amount of variation in possibility.

The forces of the initial line up are approaching hastily from the East. We expect our rendezvous to occur on Monday March 26th, in the year of two thousand and twelve. Prepare thy self earth being.

We are pleased to announce, the festival of Gnarnia will be held at Beech Mountain Resort, in Beech Mountain, NC. This unique outdoor venue is located in Eastern America’s Highest Town, with an elevation of 5,500 ft. It weighs in at just over a mile above sea level. The resort rests upon 150 acres that boast breathtaking views of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Beech Mountain Resort features restaurants, a club, bars, as well as other first class amenities. A ski lift will take you to the top of the mountain where you can enjoy activities or just take in the spectacular view.

Camping right? Actually… We’re doing this one in a different style

This is a destination festival where guests can choose from the plethora of very reasonably priced cabins, condos, and chalets available directly surrounding the resort, most of which are within walking distance to the front gate! Expect lodging at approximately $89 a night that sleeps 4, or approx $120 to sleep 6. That’s only about $20 dollars a night, and you won’t have to worry about how impossible it is to roll up that muddy tent. We know first hand that going “home” to sleep in a bed at a festival is absolutely amazing. With all the showers around, Gnarnia may even smell better than most “enchanted lands”.

The beholders of all things social shall announce good gnews as it transpires. Get at us where the bird doth tweet. Friend us, upon ye book of faces.  For the latest and greatest and special deals on tickets and other activities join the Gnarnia Email Gnewsletter. Hollla……
