| The
Vinland Cycle In this installation and performance we
have adapted the Vinland Saga into a live and independently
operated digital and audio performance. The Vinland Saga is a
thousand-year-old Viking myth that tells the story of the
Icelanders and Greenlanders who made the voyage to Vinland,
which some historians today consider to be the L'Anse Aux
Meadows site in Newfoundland. This piece is performed in the
round using new technology to tell the story of these brave men
and women's passage across teh North Atlantic and their dealings
with the natives. With the use of projections and monologues
from the saga in English and in Icelandic we have created a
performance that maintains the ancient poetic and imagistic
style of storytelling. |
