A Brand New Sense

A brand New Sense

This film documents the experience of a group of older adults working with ‘echome’, a wearable technology for sound and movement interaction. Funded through a ESRC Healthy Ageing Catalyst award, the project aimed to explore methods and ways of working that would enable a group of older adults to work with ‘echome’ within a creative setting.

Rosemary curated and delivered the workshops as the freelance dance artist on this project. The project ran for six weeks over the summer of 2023.

See the following video for an interview with Rosemary about her experience with this project.
