Marc Cohn A Song For My Daughter

The Reconstruction himself in the other






experiential convene a meeting where several people, experiences, stories, apprehensions, concerns and sensitivities, it is a common space in the current context, especially where individuality is installed and from there it perceives the environment, others and the relationships we establish. So we know what surrounds us therefore ourselves and have a trial almost immediately after the image circumscribing another.

The contact and improvisation workshop proposes and invites to rebuild from the first act of listening to the way we relate to ourselves, the environment and consequently to others, developing a space of timelessness, or more like a revaluation of time as a way to recognition of the "happening in the body."

Occur in the body is an experience where they have different patterns (strengths, tensions, fears, etc.) that appear on collective practices (work with the other) developing an awareness through the body link and playful exploration that allows improvisation.

work with the other is a chance to see each other reflected, to understand that difficulties are one of the other in terms of complementarity and opposition, to understand that these are also those that allow the flow and performing experience dance company.

roles in constant motion and range fully dissipated, allowing the solution the dichotomy between self and you, finding a balance that does not focus on the recognition of roles, but rather in the constant presence and listening as a path to achieving both.

The journey through time and space, experience develops the dynamics of vacuum, or collection of a body that is built from a center that is temporarily own but which constantly ranks as the other, where the movement, its limited to the silence imposed musical meditative experience (similar to the practice of zazen.)

is perhaps for this reason that it is impossible to define the experience of contact-improvisation, since it embodies a number of levels and layers, which can only respond to the slogan of keeping the body present, be, feel, receive, flow, inspire and exhale, let it happen, perhaps within the meaning of Tao-te King:

Simplicity begets no
wishes Desirelessness
engenders peace and thus the world itself straightens.

(Tao Te Ching, Lao Tzu, p. 123, translated by Gaston Sublette.)

dance seem that contact was always on a quest to straighten itself, following the end of the previous one, but we could add from experience, which straighten the other is a journey of constant renewal and meetings as in a fallen state proposed unwavering certainty immediately after half-time and the possibility of happening again in another one.

Perhaps, contrary to what we understand in the day to day, to give necessary, after all contact space puts us where we really exist, in and with the other, so the fall is simply a half-sense, because inevitably we are - with the other. Finally, there is no dichotomy.

"To fly is to be abandoned" 08/enero/2008

The improvisation contact seminar recently held in Santiago de Chile was and will be in memory, to next time, a human body, artistic, thoughtful, conscientious and above all emotional, where in a climate of silence and passivity could discover, look at us, sitting and dancing.

Teachers Eckhard Muller and Daniel Schwartz generated the atmosphere to reflect and practice around contact. Perhaps the fastest to reach our memory is the climate that the group was able to recognize, where everyone, and when I say everyone, I mean that regardless of backgrounds, disciplines, previous experiences, etc., we took to establish necessary to dance conventions in diversity, to accommodate the view that teachers exposed (To which I referred above.)

Hopefully we can remember and every time I dance with another, let us recall this week of multiple experiences, of many meetings, where for a moment, breathe in the stillness and joy teachers, which covered in listening to the group began to dance.

likewise grateful to the Chilean teachers who supported the initiative from his view and baggage, sharing methodologies, research and experiences with the group.



Standing Respite Stay
receipt
More
And I do nothing else moved
And ascend and descend

Inspiro

exhale And my feet again I open my eyes now

was another
And I always knew
More
now know not only what may


I feel it may not
Perhaps no one
him and he may abandon other

What I think
And given
fly without wanting to know.

Rodrigo López Allende, Chile improvisation contact seminar
7 to January 11, 2008.
