Parachute

 

A parachute is a simple, box-like agent that materializes in the space above the dancers. By translating and scaling itself to cover all of the dancers it forms a visible connection to each motion-capture marker.

As the dancers move, the parachute moves and deforms with them, tangling the lines of connection. If they move forcefully, the parachute billows widely and its momentum causes it to overshoot their position.

The parachute can spawn a second parachute, which can in turn link to a single dancer or group of dancers.
