Down the Rabbit Hole is a continuation of choreographer Houston Thomas’s Follow the White Rabbit and expands on the themes of its former of examining the relationship between humans and technology. Inspired by The Matrix film series, Down the Rabbit Hole explores how technology weaves into the fabric of daily life, transforming how we as humans interact and function. Set to a score by Johannes Goldbach and Pomassl, Thomas begs the question, in this high-powered piece: Technological change - are we powering it or is it powering us?
