Siblings and artists, Gina Laurenzi (Danceworks co-artistic director) and Dustin Laurenzi (Chicago musician and composer), amplify the Danceworks space creating a world of a wondrous nature. Performers cross between two studio spaces, inciting playful happenings and curious incidents allowing space for imagination to flourish through an experience of sound and color. dis/connect interrupts our dependence on technology revealing the wondrous positive effects of reconnection with self, others, and the environment in real time.
Joining the Danceworks stage are musicians Dustin Laurenzi and Jeff Swanson who create structured improvisatory soundscapes, melding acoustic and synthesized instrumentation. Drawing equally from traditions of free improvised music as well as electronic and sample-based music, the duo seamlessly weave earthy and otherworldly sounds into intricate textures.
