Sound
Dance to Anything, Lake Eden
Performance at {RE}:Happening 11, Black Mountain NC, April 8, 2023
Description:
Dance to Anything is a dynamic constellation of visual artists, writers/readers, and movement makers responding to sound works that have been crafted to be difficult to dance to. This sonic constraint response project was designed and organized to think less about choreography in a general sense, but how shared translations of a choreographic object (the sound works) move relational possibilities. Some of the ideas, questions, and metaphors we might conjure up from this attempted endeavor: How might we find joy in the not legibly functional in art? What are dance-tos and dance-nots? Why is movement thought of as secondary to form? What gestures, minor/major or otherwise, when explored relationally, elicit and inspire potential politics to come?
Collaboration with Anna Johnson, Camille Casemier, Chris Reeves, Jesse Malmed, Lauren Sudbrink, Lula Asplund, & Maggie Wong
