Power, data, digital
supremacy and new technologies of power…
Do you remember how your life was like before internet, social medias and owning a smartphone?
Imagine what it will be like in two, three generations.

Directly from Turin, Italy, here is one of our big 5:

Coorpi

dance, people, territories
COORPI was born in 2002 with the aim of developing new ways of communicating with the territory and its inhabitants, through the plural languages ​​of dance and body.
” we passionately create multidisciplinary projects by combining performative, visual, sound and digital languages, putting people, stories and emotions at the center, to tell the territory in which we livewe offer tools to develop the creativity and expressive qualities of the individual, through new possibilities of narration and representation of the body and movementwe use our experience to enhance and increase the relational capital of the territory and its inhabitantswe offer training courses in which video dancing is the heart of a new way of communicating ” https://coorpi.org/

“I really think music and movement – dance, you know – and literature inform my visuals. I think film is also based indance. The relationship between me, the camera and the actor is always a dance.”Christopher Doyle ( Paranoid Park (2007), Hero (2002) and 2046 (2004)…)
“I born in France and grew up in Paris from a French mother and an Egyptian father. I have lived between Paris and Sicily which is the meeting point between my ancestors cultures. This gave me a great rise of inspiration.
Since October 2019 I moved to Rome (Italy) to follow an intensive Cinematographer Course specializing in D.I.T(Digital Imaging Technician).
I come from martial arts, artistic gymnastic, comic books drawing and my first profession for 15 years have been dancing. I worked as a dancer for companies in France, Germany and Italy.
As a filmmaker I worked for several companies for promotional contents. I have been directing my own work together with the « QBR Collective » basing it on combining languages of dance with grammar of cinema.
The work was lead by linking shots with architecture, dance with all kind of intentional movements, editing with rhythm, body with environment, dance and cinema through cinematographic references.”
