The first interest of cinema was in recording movement. Cinematography derives from Greek: kinema - κίνημα "movement" and graphein - γράφειν "to record".

PARADISO is a series of interactive installations, expanding the cinematic experience of a dancefilm into physicality with the levels "senses" and "spaces". The hidden dancer's and the camera's movements are attached to the viewers position and perception.

In the first level of PARADISO - senses, presented at 18th and 19th February at Stadsschouwburg Amsterdam, the viewer is "touched", beeing attached to the dancers movement. Actuator sensors with Electroactive Polymers give a tactile feedback on the skin of the viewer. Image, sound, wind and evaporated perfumes activate all senses: sight, hearing, touch and smell.

The second level PARADISO - spaces (release Spring 2013) connects the viewer’s kinesphere to the camera movement path of the film. Watching the dancers movements in the film makes the viewer moving. Finally the viewer generates and performs a "physical montage" of the PARADISO footage himself.
