pH is a multimedia project using performance, installation, video and printed material.
The stage devices for pH are unique. The audience's seats line up above both sides of a slender sixteen-meter white linoleum floor. On the floor are a pair of truss bridges continuously moving upstage and down via computer control. Slide projectors mounted on top of the truss project various images onto the floor as performers on the floor fight with the mechanical motion of the truss bridge.
