Duel Duel Revolution

2023

The Southern Theater

Minneapolis, MN

April 14–16, 2023

​

Using the Salvador Dalí artwork Duel in the sun (1973), a graph, and variables selected by AMP community members as parameters, Duel Duel Revolution stages the showdowns and reverie born of shared music landscapes. The work considers the choreography of video game combat, the earnestness of underground dance music, and the spectator sport of arcade performance as it finds expression within and outside of preprogrammed movement.
