Manyfacts [2001] is an unique combination of dance, architecture and computer graphics. Choreographer/artisctic director Ed Wubbe's creates with architect Winy Maas an extraordinary dance fantasy set in a virtual city of the future created by Wieland&Gouwens. This city is developed by the Rotterdam firm of architects MVRDV. For a whole year MVRDV worked on a cubeshaped city measuring five by five by five kilometres, in which a million people have to be able to live, work and play. This city is brought to life on gigantic screens through dynamic computer simulations by computer graphics designers Wieland & Gouwens.
In this fascinating setting, Wubbe and his entire company of dancers bring this virtual city to life. By experimenting with constantly changing formations and forms of movement and with a soundscape designed by himself and Michiel Jansen, Wubbe explores the interaction between people and their environment.
