JD Reforma, Butterfly
Brad Darkson, Dream Job
Claudia Nicholson, The Deep Rivers Say it Slowly

Dream Job is a co-commission between Sydney Opera House and Liquid Architecture's online journal Disclaimer. Animate Loading: 3 and non-paradise were facilitated through Critical Path’s digital and choreographic exchange program.
