ABOUT

"Heat, light, magnetism, electricity, attraction and in general all the forms under which energy manifests itself, they would not exist if not as a derivative of the innate force of this universal fluid, transformed by friction and by the multiple actions within the material aggregates."

Olinto de Pretto, Hypothesis of ether in the life of the universe, Schio, 1 April 1903.

Hypothesis of the ether in the life of the universe is the result of the research of the physicist Olinto De Pretto presented at the Reale Istituto Veneto di Scienze, Lettere e Arti in 1903. 

The performance, created in collaboration with Dance Well, originates from the desire to approach De Pretto's work from a non-scientific but poetic point of view: to build a situation in which the interactions between matter and energy are translated in human movements, relationships and emotions.
