Hybrid Partnerwork is a creation technique focusing on energetic connection with resistance and elasticity, exploring variations in pressure, tone, and directionality, lead and follow experiments to enhance sensitivity and communication between the couple building a conversation instead of laying in the normal practice of bachata (one leader and one follower). The framework acknowledges the distinct aesthetics of contemporary contact improvisation, traditional, sensual, and modern bachata.
The human mind wanders like a river, it fluctuates and finds its own way into our own soul. The stream of consciousness drives us through feelings, creativity and memories that identify us as human beings and individuals with so much to offer to our society. STREAM explores the idiosyncratic internal voice we all have, highlighting our inner monologue, exploring and creating vocabulary to be able to embody a flux of ideas and thoughts.
Gliding through the creation process of every artist we realize that every single one has their own method. Destruction or deconstruction, creation, or reinterpretation. “(Do not) listen to the movement” inspired by Alejandra Pizarnik’s poem “The word for desire” transverses concepts of sorrow and darkness but within the light and hope for self-improvement.
The performance is a result of a collaborative and experimental encounter between transdisciplinary artists and scientists from the Institute of Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI/QISS Vienna). It showcases a multitude of diffracted artistic interpretations of the key research questions within the field of quantum physics and philosophy–from quantum entanglement and quantum gravity, space-time and the motion of molecules–to chaos, superposition and Ancient Chinese Ontology.
What kind of life are we living? Are we Nomads or are we Dwellers? Home is a definition that we can agree it’s completely different for everybody. It can be a place in specific (house, town, city, country, etc), it can be a person, it can be a group of people, maybe music, a book, a movie, a feeling. Home it’s quite particular and specific but abstract at the same time. Do we take it with us wherever we go, or we just linger? Now that we know that home can be anything and move anywhere.
