Extended Play

is an augmented reality dance work for the playing surface of a vinyl record.

Extended Play combines emerging technologies like motion capture and augmented reality with retro-analog technologies like music boxes and phonographs to explore memory, isolation, nostalgia and queer futurism, all while experimenting with what a record of dance is and can be.
