INTIMATE TRANSACTIONS, The Transmute Collective, in Sydney

Back from touring Europe, the Transmute Collective presents a unique  
interactive event across two sites - Intimate Transactions: Enter the  
work in at Sydney's Performance Space, Redfern or Artspace,  
Woolloomoloo. Use your body to navigate with sensors, sending soft  
and hard signals in video, touch and sound. Explore and drift through  
a sensory, private experience.

Finally, you can choose to meet another player.  Each session lasts  
up to 30 minutes per person.
