World Hold On: An interactive performance experience by Corian Ellisor
World Hold On is an interactive, multidisciplinary, non-linear, performance on the juxtaposition of liminal space within the diaspora of mixed media. Expect dance, sound, imagery, and conversation. Leave your story and hear someone else's. Build a world.
