MICROBIOLOGY OF RELATEDNESS
ABOUT PRACTICE & TEACHING
As a workshop facilitator, I use a mixture of score-based improvisation, somatic storytelling, hands-on work, voice practice, as well as physical and (micro)biological knowledge to access innate bodily virtuosity in dancing, supporting the state of being carried by movement and the access to playfulness in articulation of it.
Touching visions and haptic speculations enhance fluency and frivolity in reading physical reality. Receiving, responding, reacting. Particles, waves, flows, energy circuits. To be in touch, to be moved, to be a vessel. Delegating agency to the peripheries, decentralizing, attending to details, embracing nuances, welcoming the unknown.
Since 2018, I’ve been facilitating various workshop formats:
BECOMING-BODY & WORKING WITH THE OBVIOUS - using improvisation across media and embodiment to find creative potential of glitches in cultural patterns of perception, relationality and movement
BECOMING-PLANT DANCE SESSIONS – mixing different branches of knowledge: philosophy, craft and dance to attend to more-than-human sociality
PHYTO-SOMATIC DANCE PARTY - combining visceral meticulousness of somatic microbiology with social intimacy of a party to feel into molecular processes underlying the experience of bonding and synergy.
