Masterly dance quartet in innovation choreography of Goran Bogdanovski makes mess and order coherence, connected a dance and a sound. The author works with ballet soloists and takes advantage of their outstanding interpret qualities for the dance modernity, where humour and exaggeration are present. The work has been appreciated at the Aerowaves 2001 International Competition of Choreography.

...Therefore, the Svic in Svarc production can be read as a transfiguration of entities in the virtual space of unfixed identities appearing on the 'screen' with the computer click. In the fifty minutes they pass through different generated spaces and after the swich-off they finally disappear... Very demanding from the viewpoint of movement but nevertheless excellently performed, this work effectively combines all staging elements and presents a quality leap forward in the work of Bogdanovski and his crew in general... (Mojca Kumerdej, DELO)
