Vanessa Hérnandez Cruz defied time and space with her sci-fi thriller disguised as a dance, “Rain Glass Vortex.” In the performance, Cruz wrestled with her dance partners: her walker, Pluto, and her leg braces. She moved her arms and core in jerky, robotic movements. A bionic woman. Soon, four other disabled dancers (​​Em Waters, Ande Diedjomahor, India Harville, and Lu Chen) beamed in from the internet and mirrored her movements on a projection screen. Two were live-streamed, and two were pre-recorded, but all worked seamlessly in unison. Intermittently, the video signal dropped out, and the screen glitched. “ERROR” flashed in red text. For those who are disabled, errors are part of the everyday experience. Infrastructure is inaccessible, claims are denied, and empathy is feigned. Even in Cruz’s own imagination, error is part of the story. She ends the show appearing as a bug in a system that only caters to the able-bodied. By the time the stage goes black, she seems helpless. Cruz is alone on stage with Pluto out of reach, breathing heavily on the floor, and wrapped in cables.
