April 26th
Today and yesterday I continued putting in practice the tool of catching a central word of the concept and create scores with it.
On Monday I took one of the central ideas from capitalisms, and it is the principle of having a system which just works in the moment that a small group of person concentrate most part of the wealth.
From this principle, I started to create different choreographic scores, exploring the relation between the dancers or the relation with the space. By giving this task to a big group of dancers, they suggested that they would be in a competition.
After the improvisation with the group, I continued working on this idea with one of the guests. Each time we improvised, we tried to reinvent this score and create variation on that.
From this experience, I recognize another tool:
- Finding variations for the same score.
Today I continued working on with this tool, but with another group and with a new idea, the idea of a wave. To explore that, I worked systematically, building up slowly ideas, starting with easy scores and making them each time more and more complex.
Build up was:
1.Explore the idea of wave/reverberation with movement –in circle, one start to give impulses to the other.
Once we made by touch and after without touching.
Accelerate the transmission of the information from one body to the other.
Opening to the space.
2. After having the dynamic of the score clear for the group, we added one more element, the sound and the idea of use the space as a musical instrument.
From this experience I can pointed out the importance and the quality of build up slowly an idea, putting one layer after other.
Afternoon: mentoring. Since the provocations from a mentoring are still reverberating in myself, I prefer to resume this conversation to the came out of it: the contradiction of living in capitalisms, reflecting about it but at the same time being part of it.
