Noise

Sofia Dias & Vítor Roriz
Dance

Sofia Dias & Vítor Roriz have been collaborating as a duo of artists since 2006. The hybrid nature of their research, coupled with their desire for experimentation, has led them to create numerous shows, soundtracks, videos, podcasts, and installations, crossing different contexts and blurring boundaries between artistic fields. In 2023 and 2024, they are Artists in Residence at the Champalimaud Foundation, where they develop interdisciplinary research processes in synergy with researchers from the Champalimaud Center for the Unknown. It was during this residency that the title for this piece emerged: Noise. A concept that, in the field of neuroscience, has acquired an aura of mystery due to its omnipresence in neural functioning and its difficulty in being explained. Noise can represent nothingness, the irrelevant, what disturbs and pollutes, but also the flow of significant information that we (still) cannot grasp.
