A dance theater experiment in digital media and remote collaboration, Lubricious Transfer used the Internet 2 (I2) to produce collaborative, interactive, and simultaneous performances broadcast live to local and remote audiences in Santa Cruz and New York City. Our conception of Lubricious Transfer was inspired by the ways electricity transmits the expressive and sensual nature of the human form: neuro-muscularly between mind and body, visually between embodied form and a viewer's eyes, and technologically in data streams between East and West coasts. In this way, remote performers were united in an aesthetic, often unpredictable, interplay.
