[ I ]nquiry I is inspired by 21st century perceptions, constructions and manifestations of Self within online and physical spaces. A multidisciplinary collaboration between Choreographer Kim Brook Mata, Digital Media Designer Mona Kasra, Composer Kristina Warren, and Costume Designer Debra Otte (Montclair State University), this mixed-media performance integrates dance and media to explore notions of identity, self- representation, and self-presentation in our hyper-mediated networked existence.

Creative Team: Kim Brooks Mata (Choreography), Mona Kasra (Digital Media Design), Krisitna Warren (Music Composition), Debra Otte (Costume Design), Matthew Ishee (Lighting Design). Student Design Team: Ashlye Allison, Caroline Blanton, Mike Doeren, Aspen Miller. Dance Performers: Ellen Crooks, Vivien Fergusson, Maisie Finley, Elyssa Fonicello, Aqura Russell, Gabrielle Struckell, Sage Tanguay.

This piece was made possible through the support of an Arts Enhancement grant and the Arts Endowment through the Office of the Provost and Vice Provost of the Arts.
