If the merging of live Machinema performance, Halo and modern dance sounds interesting, you’ll want to check out the Halo™ Ballet world premier this Sunday!

From the organizers description:

Halo™ Ballet: Inspired by machinima — the repurposing of 3D graphics engines from video games like Quake to create video animation — X Avant takes things one step further by presenting Halo™ Ballet, a realtime live dance, choreographed by Julia Aplin and set to live music commissioned from Aaron Gervais. Toca Loca’s “Halorinas” will dance within a networked Halo™ game. Is Halo™ Ballet dance, multimedia, or just a really boring game where  no one gets killed?  Featuring Rick Sacks, Erik Ross, David Schotzko, Callan Burgess, Gregory Oh, Sanya Eng, Greg Samek and Stephanie Chua.

“Halorinas” may just be the best word ever.

Info and Tickets available here.

BONUS! Some footage of the “Halorinas” rehearsing!

Thanks to Callan for the tip!
