Origin

Origin seeks to discover the beginnings of every significant moment, intention, and emotion. Focusing on a personal journey of awareness and growth, Origin utilizes fellow choreographer, Fiona Marcotti-Dolenga, who offers a live phychic reading and acts as a source of intuition and curiosity, to reveal a deeper understanding of perceiving our lives, our foundations, and our destinations. Originally commissioned and presented by Dance New Amsterdam in New York, NY as part of In the Company of Men Series in 2006.

2006, 20 minutes, one performer

Music: Orvar Smarson and Gunnar Tynes
Sound and Video Design: Alexander Pro

Julian Barnett conjured urban and personal angst in his "origin," a solo with video featuring Fiona Marcotti as a slightly worn-looking street psychic advising Mr. Barnett, a slight, intense performer... for this ambitious piece.
