Aethernet is a community-engaged dance project that was first born from the isolation we all felt when Covid-19 hit. After over two years ‘stuck’ at home, we felt motionless, our bodies screaming for action and connection. We were never “alone” however. We are all connected, not only through our ethernet cables, but mainly through the elements we are all made of. Aethernet dances the air we breathe, the fire our passions light inside us, the earth we eat from, the water we come from and the life opportunities suspended in the ether, waiting for us!

Aethernet est un projet chorégraphique à engagement communautaire, né de l’isolement que nous avons tous ressenti aux débuts de la pandémie de Covid-19. Après plus de deux ans ‘bloqués’ chez nous, nos corps ne demandaient qu’à bouger et se connecter aux autres. Nous n’étions pourtant jamais seuls. Nous sommes tous connectés les uns aux autres, par nos cables éthernet bien sûr, mais surtout par les éléments dont nous sommes tous constitués et sans qui nous ne pourrions exister. Aethernet danse l’air que nous respirons, le feu que nos passions allument en nous, la terre qui nous nourrit, l’eau d’où nous venons, et l’éther qui transporte nos idéaux. 

We are very thankful to all the dancers, volunteers and community dancers who answered our call and made this project possible.

Nous sommes reconnaissant à tous les danseurs, bénévoles et danseurs communautaires qui ont répondu à notre appel et ont rendu ce projet possible.
