ABOUT DARREN
Choreographer, director, video and sound artist, Darren Johnston is artistic director of Array. He trained at Laban and graduated with the outstanding Choreographic Achievement Award. His full-scale installation Ren-sa, beginning with a magical, mystery bus tour, was given a Herald Angel Award at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2005. Darren's explorative collaborations have led him to work with artists such as Squarepusher, Jamie Lidell and Cristian Vogel. In 2005 he choreographed the stage show for the one-off Aphex Twin/Chris Cunningham show in Turin and opened for the Warp Moves show at Brighton Dome. Darren is a former associate artist at The Place and of Southbank Centre. 

ABOUT THE WORK
A collision of sound, video and live performance, Multiple is a  journey into the subconscious.  A hypnotic solo performer is joined by multiple simulations of himself culminating in a strange ensemble performance by the real and the virtual.

"When the mind is disturbed, the multiplicity of things is produced, but when the mind is quieted the multiplicity of things disappears."  Fritjof Capra, The Tao of Physics
