Scores and Found Movements: in the archives of Yvonne Rainer, Lucinda Childs, Trisha Brown and Deborah Hay

In this workshop framework, a score is a blueprint for opening creative pathways of thinking and doing - in terms of dancing. An introduction will be given about the score itself and some artists that work with it: as a framework, a structure, a set of tools, a set of rules, as a script for a performance presentation, as well as an inspiration. We will work both practically and theoretically, conceptualizing scores from specific choreographers as well as activating and embodying them.

Therefore, my approach to scores applies an ongoing research methodology within the notion of the body-archive as the body of dance history - its relation to the tradition of dance based on operations with the appropriation of found movements (Rainer, 1966), one of the central concepts of the American postmodern dance movement (1960-70), taking my re-enactments of four minimalist choreographies as found choreographies: Trio A (Yvonne Rainer, 1966), Locus (Trisha Brown, 1975) Calico Mingling (Lucinda Childs, 1973), and No Time to Fly (Deborah Hay, 2010).

To re-enact those choreographies, I have been applying the post-annotation or video-annotation from Motion Bank Annotation System. The late is the development of the Motion Bank former project that has its roots in two William Forsythe’s projects: Synchronous Object for One Flat Thing, reproduced (2000) and Improvisational Technologies (2012), both working with the Forsythe Company to translate through digital data the choreographic knowledge, and repurpose this information visually and qualitatively.

Theatermaschine 2022 | WTF is ATW?

The Theatermaschine is an annual showcase of the works of the students studying Applied Theatre Studies and Choreography and Performance at the Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen. 

Additionally to a variety of artistic pieces, the Theatermaschine is also known for its festival character. This year's motto is: WTF is ATW?

Together with you, we would like to explore that question and show you what we are working on right now and what characterizes our institute. 

The Showings consist of various performances, films and videoart, music and dance showings, readings as well as installations. 

We hope that this festival manages to create a space for new encounters and that we will experience 5 unforgettable days!

You can look forward to an extensive and versatile program, many showings and parties, concerts and activities at the festival centre.

 

When? June 16 - 20
Where?
Stages of the institute

The name of the Piece

Two performers, a writer, and a musician improvise onstage in the abyss that separates words and things, looking for ways to queer language and emancipate bodies from the names and concepts that were given to them. They engage in an ongoing process of building practices to question an anthropocentric approach to language. Theirs is a performance of deconstruction, an exercise in seeing language not as a way to appropriate things (I name, it’s mine) or to prove some human superiority, but as an eternal dialog between ungraspable beings. Within this dialog, worlds/words can be created.

Trans Practices for Everyday Life

In Frankfurt, seven people (a choreographer, a dramaturg, and five performers) come together to mine our expertise in being radically ourselves. As trans and nonbinary folks, we wake up everyday ready to thwart reality, choosing to shape our bodies and identities through self-determined improvisation—even in the face of systems that threaten to pathologize or erase us. Ours is a double negation: of the systems that structure life, and the need to inhabit them.
In the rehearsal studio, we develop physical practices out of our unique daily routines. We write, talk, move, sing. One of us bathes in her dance of trying on dresses; another giddily wrestles with his own biceps. We choreograph our own existence, deciding how, where, and when we want to be witnessed. We invite you to do the same

For Kim, Patti and Ellie. You are my heroines.

Hey Joe. You Hungry baby. But Don‘t call me mad. There‘s a difference, I’m angry.
