Infinite Light at International Horticultural Exposition Xi'an 2011: Sketch for Water Stage dance media art by Infinite Light (Broussard/Bainbridge)

On April 28 a multimedia spectacle opened at the International Horticultural Exposition 2011 in Xi'an, China. Video director Benton-C Bainbridge and choreographer Brooke Broussard's collaboration "Infinite Light" contributed dance and media art to this extravaganza under the artistic direction of Huang Hui. The production combines live dance performances by Chinese and American dancers with lasers, underwater LED displays, and manipulated dance video projected onto multiple giant screens made of water and fog. It will be performed for the 178 day duration of the Xi'an World Expo from April 28, 2011 to October 22, 2011.

The theme of the Xi'an Expo‚ eternal peace and harmony between nature and mankind, is in perfect alignment with the concepts examined by Infinite Light. Ms. Broussard describes Infinite Light as "an exploration of how the intuitive body can peacefully navigate through both the natural world and the world of technology." The unique, cross-cultural collaboration of Hui, Broussard, and Bainbridge will create a technologically ground-breaking and visionary show for the 2011 Expo. "Infinite light" is seen by 3000 visitors each night.
