Course description: Workshop by Egle Budvytyte and Bart Groenendaal
During the workshop we will explore tools and technologies for becoming a subversive
body and for generating a subversive presence; a choreographed intervention in the
public domain.
We will think how studio practice can be expanded, extended, ‘leaked’ into the
outdoors. How to produce a counter-rhythm, a different time zone in the homogenised
environment of the city?
Using movement, rhythm, editing and location analysis we will look into the poetic,
political and cinematic potential of gestures/appearances in the public realm - through
a camera lens or through the eyes of a bird.
