CINDY is an experiment that dissects kinesthetics, sounds and visuals into isolated scores, slowly molding into a sensory representation of game theory. A desire to investigate behaviors in situations where the outcome of decisions is influenced by the possible choices of each element. They are reassembled according to a game theory algorithm using live coding, enabling sensitive interaction between all elements and offering a new installation each time. It is not so much an attempt to imitate games in the traditional sense, but rather a play between fragmented states.
Inspired by the loopy pathways of Hurricane Cindy, a clear game-theoretical pattern emerges as the body storms through the space.
Flóra Boros will also share her practice focusing on individual exploration of different movement qualities through the application of certain game theoretical methods and uses tools from the working process of CINDY.

Flóra Boros (HU/AT) is an independent performing artist and choreographer based in Vienna and Budapest. Her works have been presented at venues such as Kaaitheater, WUK, Muffathalle, Theater Akzent and Schwere Reiter as well as various festivals. With her first solo performance CINDY, she received the START scholarship from the Austrian Ministry of Culture in 2022, as well as the ATLAS scholarship at ImPulsTanz festival. She completed her studies at the Music and Arts University of Vienna in 2021, with her thesis winning a scholarship from the City of Vienna, serving as theoretical research for CINDY. Her current artistic practice explores intimacy, liberation from a queer perspective, and the directing of the gaze to question how the body conveys embodied narratives beyond normative structures.
