available tension
explores the use and understanding of tension in its many forms related to movement / energy in communication. drawing from Kinetic Awareness® of intermedia-pioneer Elaine Summers, tension is used as a dynamic gift that can be used for any kind of style or code. Release is understood as an instrumental way of using tension. on a wider scale this practice can be applied to a dialogue with different approaches in dance, music, visual arts, architecture, drama, sociology etc.

sensitive energy
continues this awareness to a next level, also with specific attention to the ongoing flow of emotions and their work in performance. the goal is to arrive at a holistic continuum where the most minute details can be sensed and evolved at any instant, potentially leading to con·sens·us. the image by Mary O' Donnell-Fulkerson of each human as a cloud of experiences, equally helped to originate this understanding  for the full description of this image, click here



con·sens·us
is created from the sensorial interaction of mover(s) with each other, and/or the environment. the goal is to ever refine response-ability. like the other two practices, it uses all levels sensation and action.

see con-sens-us.net for the start of this practice as a dance-project
