Retrieving Humanity

Retrieving Humanity is a one-of-a-kind interactive performance and installation that will bring live streaming video and audio from around the world to Santa Fe.

This new concept of storytelling will allow the audience, by participation, to explore and express connections with their community and the world at large.

Through the use of cutting-edge technology, including custom-made software, motion sensors, media streaming, computer networking, and DJ and VJ (video jockey) software, Retrieving Humanity pushes the boundaries of art, technology, and communication.
