Zeros & Ones (2008)
Developed in the Winter 2008 in Bangalore, India's "Silicon Valley", the piece highlights the digital division of the e-haves and the e-have nots.
Using a hybrid vocabulary where spoken word, video, and new technologies allow the emergence of a poetic language of the body. The solo examines how close East and West can come together before they collide. Wired up with sensors, one on each limb, and attached to the special metallic bells and using the an interactive software (max/msp), each movement triggers fragments of sound and poetry turning Sinha into a "physical spoken word DJ"
«Zeros and Ones, a strong statement on the demographic bubble with India's multinationals and Coca Colas and Tata Indicas amidst the backdrop of contrastingly traditional beautiful screened visual images of eloquent eye gestures, telling the story of Draupadi, Bhima and Hanuman [...] very clever. The final statement of India's "perfect dance of death" says it all».
