Abstract
The formal launch of the OzAsia Festival’s visual arts program at the Adelaide Festival Centre earlier this month involved an encounter with the unexpected.
In the adjoining gallery, instead of the usual well-heeled patrons and donors clinking wine glasses and devouring finger food, I saw men, women, and even children tossing off their shoes and jumping into Japanese choreographer Hiroaki Umeda’s immersive, pixelating video environment.
