I INFINITE is a dance installation by British choreographer, Tom Dale, a Laban graduate winning the centre’s Award for Outstanding Achievement in Choreography, but has worked in companies including Matthew Bourne’s Adventures in Motion Pictures.
It is a solo dance piece — blurb time — “Performed in a white cube space with a digitally animated environment. A fascinating fusion of dance, music, art and design.”
I INFINITE focuses on the interplay between dancer, audience and a digital space, probing the limits at which point these aspects merge.

The audience is invited to move around the performance space to choose their own viewpoint, venturing close to the dancer or just sitting to watch the intimate movement so often missed in traditional theatre spaces.
More blurb: “Inspired by the digital world’s quest to recreate life, graphic patterns slice through the space; glowing cubes fracture into a myriad of minuscule squares and pools of light hover in the air like oil on water.”
What drew Tom Dale to this digital world?
I was inspired by robotics, artificial intelligence and how the digital world is moving on an increasingly fast trajectory towards lifelike manifestations. How does the digital explore and master this physical world from its finite perspective? What would a robot or A.I. need to understand or learn in order to move in a human-like way.

His company — The Tom Dale Company, or TDC — is rapidly becoming one of the UK’s leading contemporary dance companies. Using digital media and electronic music with dance is a trademark.
The synergy between dance and the digital arts is the major artery pumping through TDC’s practice, its vision, through its collaborations with the digital arts, is to re-imagine dance.
I INFINITE is a collaboration between Tom Dale, Barret Hodgson and Maria Olga Palliani

The Tom Dale Company (TDC) has always been one of my favorite U.K. dance companies. I attended their performance of ROAM at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and was fascinated with the way he merged musical composition, lighting design and choreography all created simultaneously. I watched the trailer of I INFINITE and loved it. Thank you for publishing these awesome pictures of the work and for bringing attention to their upcoming performances.
Thanks Susana – how much you do for new work!
