"What seems to hold all of these together is its energy...5.1‘s got enough technicolour bombast to keep me from switching channels." TODAY

 

 

5.1 refers to the six channel surround sound multichannel audio system - the most commonly used layout in both commercial cinemas and home theatres. It is also about the search of self in a densely populated space, a space with a population that is reaching the 5.1 million mark.

 

Decimal Points 5.1 is a wordless movement based performance, incorporating radio frequency motion sensors, neo futuristic costumes and unconventional live vocal experimentation, colliding techno toys with raw human physicality.

 

Living is complicated in the complex techno world and as the self diminishes, the soul is finding its exit. 5.1 is a search for that balance between the soul and the cold, the dense and the sparse, the new and the old, the foreign and the native, the logical and the illogical.

 

This is a time for rebirth.
