Synchronicity
by Tony Hurd, Hans Uhlig
🏆 Honorary Mention · Prix Ars Electronica 2001
In 2001, the Prix Ars Electronica jury recognised “Synchronicity” by Tony Hurd and Hans Uhlig (Computer Animation) with a Honorary Mention.
Synchronicity is an entirely computer-generated ballet and allegory. “It’s a story about growing up,” says director Hans Uhlig. “The two dancers are born, and as their consciousness dawns they become aware of each other. Their initial reaction is apprehension and fear, and they fight over their identity like teenagers.
