Drum/Dance at Unimate with Ray Psalm

This episode is the start of a new short-form series I’m calling Quick Hits. It's a drum and dance improvisation similar to those that conclude most of The Real Future conversations. These non-verbal exchanges are popular, so I decided to bring my drum synthesizer to Unimate, a weeklong international convention focused on robot and animation dance styles. Thank You to Jaja Vankova and Slim Boogie for welcoming The Real Future to Unimate 2025. It’s been amazing to participate as a photographer, and this year I was able to share music and movement exchanges with some of the dancers. These are completely spontaneous - we select a sound palette, then just go for it! This Quick Hit features Ray Psalm, a dancer from Washington D.C. who contributes her warm spirit and calm presence to the Unimate production team.
