MD6001 Week 13 - SIRO-A (Updated from 13/10/14)

SIRO-A is a Japanese show that combines mime with projection-mapping, animation and techno music. In the Human Peacock clip above the man appears to be hitting the animated balls and his shadow is projected onto the screen several times in different colours. He eventually stands in the middle of the stage and moves his arms so that his shadows form a peacock shape. The animation and projection-mapping elements particularly inspire me for my Aduna brief although they inspired me for the Surbiton Station Christmas Projection more.

I saw SIRO-A at the Leicester Square Theatre myself on the 9th January 2015 and although it was only about an hour long I still enjoyed it, especilally the character cinema sequence above where the performer re-enacted scenes from The Matrix, Frozen, James Bond and SIngin' in the Rain.
