Palindrome is a dance company

Founded in New York City in 1982, Palindrome moved to Germany in 1991, first Nürnberg, and then Weimar, where they remain busy with choreographic matters.

This website is under construction until June 2018.  In the meantime, please excuse certain missing links (and some very old content!).

Its founder and artistic director Robert
Wechsler applies his fascination for science and technology to the art of dance. As the computer age dawned in the 1990's, Palindrome became a pioneer in the use of interactive technology, creating dance pieces and operas which earned critical acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic. Palindrome won first prize at the Berlin Transmediale, first prize at CynetArt Dresden and, most recently, a special recognition award from the Margaret Guthman Musical Instrument Competition at Georgia Tech University.

Since 2010, the focus has been on the MotionComposer -- an interactive device for person with other abilities. It makes music out of movement -- be it an acrobatic pirouette, or the blink of an eye!
