Is what we're seeing real? Rage Bait is a dance and projection work that explores how regularly consuming news and social media information leads to polarization and conflict, impacting our choices beyond the digital world. The work includes live video feeds projected onto a screen situated between the audience and the performers. Throughout the work, the audience can choose to view the dancers onscreen as mediated by the cameras or witness their full physical bodies onstage.
