Workshop Description:

In this workshop, we will consider how movement and its manipulation can bring us to meaning production. What lurks behind the sign systems of body and shape that we can use to create layered choreographic statement? We will make work daily and use the material to examine foundational questions about where information emanates from in movement based choreographies. What are we "reading" from a dance and how can we shape this. Central to this examination will be the use of time-sculpting, using velocity as a tool for making.
