Austringer
presented by Smashworks Dance
​
Summer 2025
Smashworks Dance is thrilled to collaborate with our newest Artists in Residence Louisa Pancoast and Dr. Nialah Wilson-Small for a one-of-a-kind evening-length performance coming Spring 2025. Austringer will bring dancers and drones to the stage with live-feed projection elements. Austringer is an immersive contemporary dance piece with a network of multiple drones and dancers and one drone pilot, exploring human-drone physical contact, weight-sharing, and proximity and how it relates to surveillance and intimacy. Does witnessing closeness and touch between humans and drones alter our perception of drones; are they a threat or a comfort?
