Dance Improvisation with Kirstie Simson 舞蹈即興

2009-08-08T01:37:00.006+08:00

Kirstie: "We are movers, and our intelligence is in our moving" ... "how can we know this without moving?"

"... improvising keeps me on an edge because I never know what it will be ... but it's not casual."

Kirstie: "我們是動作者，我們的智慧就在動作中… 我們如何能不動作而知曉此一事實?"

"即興讓我處在刀刃上，因為我永遠不知道會發生什麼…但（即興）不是草率的。"

“If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?”

In 1959, three scientists teamed up “to test one of the most esoteric predictions of Einstein’s theory of gravity…whether and how the spinning Earth twists space-time around itself…Now, 45 years and $ 700 million later, their dream has materialized as a van-size assemblage of plumbing, electronics and quartz.” –NY Times, April 13, 2004

「如果我們知道自己在做什麼的話，我們所做的事就不會被叫作研究了，不是嗎？」－愛因斯坦

1959年三位科學家集結起來「測試愛因斯坦最神秘難解的地心引力理論之一…地球自轉是否造成以及如何造成時空扭曲…45年以及耗費了七億美金之後，他們的夢想具體成為一個箱型車大小，由管線、電子零件以及石英拼湊起來的裝置。」－紐約時報2004年4月13日報導

This is the second dance and interactive media experiment Chris and I did. The music and some of the video clips were taken directly from “Déjà vu multimedia”, our first experiment. Instead of hiding behind the scene and running the interactive media program, Chris was dancing, albeit minimally, in video as well as on stage this time.

"Déjà-vu複合媒材版"

編舞&演出：王珮君

音樂＆互動影像程式設計及執行：朱星朗

演出時地：２００６年８月３日，台北牿嶺街小劇場

演出本身就是一個創作過程的揭示，強調各元素有其作為表演媒介之獨立性，不用依賴或去服務他者，並嘗試尋求彼此之間的平衡。結果是一個既舞蹈又文字又音樂又影像的創作表演行為，並非跨領域藝術家之間的合作，而是兩個舞蹈工作者身為創作人的自我跨越領域行為。
