Collective Composition
October 25th, from 3-5pm
Workshop
Togetherness.
What binds us and makes us part of a community? Whether in private life, within a family, a self-chosen circle, or a group brought together by chance, how can shared experiences and journeys be fully lived and shaped together?
Collective Composition (improvisation) is about creating in the moment – together. We explore how individual impulses can connect, overlap, and form a shared dance language. The workshop offers space to tune into your own body, to listen, and to playfully build compositions in real time with others. The score we work with investigates both the mundane and the strange: fragments of everyday actions and continual re-compositions of new situations. By refining our individual and collective sense of space, time, and behavior, we ask: how do we communicate while collectively composing movement?
Listening. Action. Negotiation. Listening. Reflection. Shifting. Variation. Listening. Modification.
Where is verbal language needed, and where is it not? How can mutual agreements be made through the body – non-verbally – and when through spoken words?
For anyone with some dance experience and curiosity about body awareness.
