Dance research
2010-2011

Fascinated by the social politics of club culture, in specific I turn the spotlight on the ritual as a meeting process, both literally and, well… magically.


Given my previous work the starting point of this artistic adventure might not be all that surprising, i.e. the interaction of dance and music and the effects this has on body and mind states.
I attempt to explore this powerful synergy and to extend it to other media, both aesthetically and in relation to the development of hybrid formats. To rethink the collaboration between dance and music, following the way prophetically shown by Cage: “ Make music an integral part of the dance, and dance, as an art of time, a strong media, and useful to society”.

The research led to the creation of two underground rituals:
