THINKING WITH/IN THE MINOR AS A STUDY IN UNSTEADY YET PERSISTENT PRACTICES THAT CONSTRUCT AN ELSEWHERE, THIS WORKSHOP TENDS TO THE FIELD OF MATERIAL AND HALLUCINATORY PROXIMITIES, MOVING TOWARD INDETERMINACY, EXCESS AND DISSONANCE PRODUCED AND DESTROYED IN TEMPORAL SITUATIONS AND POETIC STRUCTURES.

A NEVER-ENDING BODILY CONTEMPLATION ON TIME, SENSUALITY, DIS/PLACEMENT, DIS/ORDER, RELATIONS AND THE UNSTEADY OSCILLATION BETWEEN FALLING AND DANCING.

“IMPROVISATION IS KEY !”

FOR CONDITIONS THAT PRODUCE AND EXCRETE DANCING, REMEMBERING, FEELING.
