Cos-Mo Cap Astrodrome America is a live multiplayer game performed on stage. As players battle against gravity, their performances are mediated through a motion capture system that challenges the typical interactive relationship between player and screen. Accompanied by live music and real-time analog graphics, the Cos-Mo Cap Astrodrome America system suggests an alternative to the Central Processing Unit as we know it.
