-It tackles and dramatizes the issue of how memory and memories work in a very interesting way, turning them into staged ‘objects’.
-It is filmed in a single, continuous shot. Van y vienen is a specially choregraphed piece for camera, making it an experience that gets as close to the audience as possible, even though it is a video.
Video dance: This genre emerged as a result of the experimentation between dance and image capture techniques. It dates back to the appearance of video art and the beginnings of cinema and evolved in parallel with these over time. It is not a record of a dance on video, but rather dance and the camera form a symbiotic relationship. In this kind of play, the creation of the choreography typically only exists on film or video.
“Neither the dance nor the method of rendering are in service to each other, but are rather partners or collaborators in the creation of a hybrid form”, says North American producer and theorist Douglas Rosemberg.

Inspired by the popular phrase ‘memories come and go’ and recorded as a one-shot sequence, the play positions movement as the basis for the memories we hope to recuperate.

-Por la muy interesante forma en que aborda y escenifica el tema del funcionamiento de la memoria y los recuerdos, convirtiéndolos en un “objeto” escenificado.
-Por la forma en que está filmada, como un gran plano secuencia: Van y vienen es una pieza especialmente coreografiada para la cámara, de forma de convertirla en una experiencia lo más cercana posible a la audiencia, a pesar de ser un video.
Videodanza: Género que surge de la experimentación entre la danza y la técnica de captura de imagen. Se remonta a la aparición del videoarte y los comienzos del cine y su evolución camina paralelamente a lo largo de la historia. Hay que resaltar que no son registros de una danza en video, sino que danza y cámara establecen una relación simbiótica. En tales obras, la creación de la coreografía típicamente existe sólo en película o vídeo. "Ni la danza ni los medios para manifestarla están al servicio uno de otro, sino que son compañeros o colaboradores en la creación de una forma híbrida", define el realizador y teórico estadounidense Douglas Rosemberg.
