Upon founding Capacitor in 1997, Jodi Lomask began exploring the intersection of science, environmentalism and new technology through dance, sound and sculpture. She designs motion sculptures that are only complete when the human body interacts with them. She has toured internationally with her company, creating shows inspired by the deep Earth and ocean, the forest canopy and creativity in the brain, outer space and flower sexuality, and the people who research them. She has been commissioned to create original works for Apple, NASA, TED, SF Airport and the Discovery Channel. She was awarded the Isadora Duncan Award for Sustained Achievement and named an Ocean Luminary by the Museum of Natural History.
She has gone on speaking tours to discuss creative problem solving and interdisciplinary collaboration between artists and scientists. She has been an artist in residence at the UCSF Neuroscape Lab, SHACK15, The Lab SF, California Academy of Sciences, CounterPulse, Zaccho, and The Kennedy Center, along with Yaddo and Djerassi Artist Colonies and an Osher Fellow. Her work has been covered by Nature Magazine, Wired, TechTV, NPR, as well as The New York Times, Time Out, the Smithsonian Magazine and Dance Magazine. She has directed multiple award-winning 2D and VR180 films. She considers herself an experiential tour guide - making dances and environments that affect how people sense their bodies and minds. She is a professional innovation and creativity coach as well as a psychedelic guide offering bespoke experiences for people who want to access their deepest meaning.
