IDEA
¿M.R.U.M.? Can You Give Me a Movement/Gift?
¿M.R.U.M.? Can You Give Me a Movement/Gift? is an idea concieved a few years ago when we began to wonder what
would happen if the movements in a choreography, instead of coming
from the choreographer or the dancers, came from the inhabitants of a
city. The creative process developed around these “movements gifts”
which become the driving force in the performance creation.
In
2010, looking through our notebooks, We found this question again and
it stuck us as even more interesting, this idea of going out in the
street, choosing a daily route through the city and opening
ourselvels up to the heady action-reaction experiencie that could
lead from the question “Can You Give Me a Movement/Gift?”
To
archieve this we will begin by going around the city, video camera in
hand, collecting the movements gifts, carry
out a kind of demographic census of movements.
As
we recieve these gifts we will become impregnated with this amalgam
which makes up the city, and a kind of dreamwold is created where
movement is the lenguaje. Then we will try to do the puzzle, fit the
pieces together in a performance space, where the inhabitants in the
video format come together with the dancers on stage to be shared
with the audience.
¿M.R.U.M.? Aims to be an interactive creation between people, a lived journey, a surprise, a game and a powerful stimulation for contemporary creation.
¿M.R.U.M.? Can You Give Me a Movement/Gift? consists in three parts:
- Scenic Project.
- Video Installation.
- Laboratory of Contemporary Creation
