The Experiment


Sonos is a contemporary dance work exploring the visceral understanding of the human body through the manipulation of mediated sound. 


We live in an age where we are bombarded with mediated sound daily. The relentless penetration of mediated sound into our lives has dulled our minds and, in turn our innate awareness of our bodies. 


If sound can affect our mood, can it change our physiology also? What happens when the body can in turn have influence over the sound we hear? 


Experimenting with motion capture technology Sonos is an exciting meeting point in the evolution of the digital age.


This is only the beginning.

The Aspiring Creator

Hi my name is Aimee (could have been a Stevie) and dance is the love of my life. Haha ok I have a lot of other interests but it is the life blood. I have done everything from HipHop crews to being in a bollywood film, graphic designer to yoga instructor and all these experiences have led me to the infinitely creative world of contemporary dance. As a choreographer I am inspired by sound and its effect on the way our body listens and responds. Sonos will be (if all goes well) my first full length creation that I am genuinely excited to share with you.
