Working with participants from the 'World is Sudden' Summer School, the second performance as part of 'Software Garden' was devised over a day workshop. Exploring how technology is part of their lives, participants were invited to think of a software they would like to create based on a need. After imagining what this software would be, the group were invited to think about this software as a backdrop to a series of choreographic scores and exercises exploring ideas of collective systems, care, individual and co-creation. Performed to an audience in the evening, these choreographic scores were performed and interwoven to live music written for 3 saxophonists and music videos from the growing album 'Software Garden'.
