GPF is an interactive, multimedia dance show, drafted and finalised by GL in collaboration with the dancer, MFG.
Plunging the individual/interpreter into an abstract, artificially reconstructed, multimedia landscape, with sound, colour and words, forces reflection on the relationship between the languages of the various media present, with a particular attention focussed on the semantic weight which, time after time, pre-empts, in perceptive terms, one information channel rather than another.
To this performance is superimposed a narrative plan, in which the individual/performer is taken from his present awareness of himself and of the complex semantic intertwining which model the surrounding atmosphere, to interacting with the landscape itself, thanks to an interactive motion detection system. When the rules of the landscape change, the individual is constrained to put his own awareness in question, in order to cope with the new situation. In this work, GL analyses the relationship between an autonomous system composed of different media streams, and the capacity of Man to control them, outlining a metaphor of adaptation processes.
