Whenever two people engage in a social encounter they must choose some degree of physical proximity. The lower limit equals bodily contact; the upper limit is set by factors of visibility and audibility. It is supposed that a person is both attracted and repelled by another, and takes up a position corresponding to the equilibrium position.

So how do you know when you're too close?

Strange Attractors is a theatre show about us and you and our friends, about our fair city, about people you've met at partie...s and people you've passed on the street, about feeling hungover when you're not, about the Matrix.

NODE presents its annual selection of brand-new contemporary compositions by undergraduate composers studying at the Department of Music, Trinity College Dublin. Under the supervision of Dr Evangelia Rigaki of the Music Composition Centre, student performers and composers have been working hard to prepare MOTION/ARREST.

The evening consists of a diverse programme of short works for mixed ensembles, with items ranging from short chamber works to large works for vocalists, electronic instruments and conventional forces. 

NODE is supported by the Provost's Visual and Performing Arts Fund and the TCD Association and Trust.
