Pairing the gestures of modern, interpretive dance to the ecstatically, high-energy pop song, “In the NA” depicts a scientific experiment in hypnotism / human behavior gone awry. The subjects cognitive information is examined, recorded, inputted and finally obliterated by the performers. In its surrealistic climax, the music overpowers the experiment demanding that a new language for scientific understanding be established.
