MUSE 010: Interview with Marion Ballister, Dresden

2010-08-12T22:20:59.416Z

http://www.dance-tech.net Since her education at CNDC in Angers, from 1987 to 1989, Marion Ballester has had a triple career as choreographer, performer and teacher. After having started her career as a dancer in 1989 with Dominique Petit, she was engaged by Phillipe Découflé and later joined Rosas, in both cases as a performer, until leaving to study in New York at the Trisha Brown Studios in 1992. From then on she started elaborating her own choreographic research, founding her own company and creating her own work; Blue Mathematics, then Unconscious Landscape (2000), project dance/sculpture/video for 4 dancers inspired by the work of Louise Bourgeois; Intimez-moi (2001); Bord à Bord (2002); and finally Neptune (2004) created within the framework of the Festival des Antipodes in Brest. She went on to become assistant to Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker for the creation of Once, in 2002. Marion Ballester is at present still dancing the trio Desh with this Flemish choreographer. In 2005 she collaborated with the Company Frederic Flamand/Charleroi dance for the performance Huit. Since 2010 she has been working with Raimund Hogue on a new project and is the assistant of Michèle Noiret. In parallel Marion Ballester never ceases to deepen the pursuit of a practice of pedagogy, in the midst of different educational structures and professional dance companies; at la Ménagerie de Verre, at CND, at P.A.R.T.S or the companies of Angelin Preljojac, of Philippe Découflé and of Jean-Claude Gallota. produced by marlon barrios solano

Interview with Czech dancer and teacher Jarek Cemerek (www.jaekcemerek.com) in the context of the summer workshop MUSE 010 at the palucca Schule in Dresden Germany.
In this contemporary dance class, students learn to use their bodies in a variety of ways. They focus on breathing, posture, and emotional state to establish a mind-body connection. They start on the floor, warming up the body with down on earth organic movement. Students may learn choreographed works, or they may be encouraged to improvise dance pieces.

Marlon Barrios Solano interviews Anton Lachky in the context of MUSE 010 organized by Tanzplan Dresden at the Palucca Schule.
Description of the course and bio from Tanzplan Dresden website:
The primary goal of this course is to emphasize the joy of dancing and allow participants to find pleasure in movement. The workshop aims to help performers develop a strong individual presence and provide an opportunity for playful experimentation as well as hard work. The main focal points are coordination, the limits of speed, the isolation of individual body parts and the establishment of a strong centre. In this course Anton Lachky challenges the dancers’ creativity and teaches his approach to the development of dance material. This involves an in-depth exploration of movement and its complexity so as to create redesigned material for movement.

Anton Lachky (SK/B)

Working with W. Forsythe’s ideas of improvisational modalities as tools to generate clear and articulate movements guides you to a better understanding of what the body can do in an accelerated state of motion. It's a great way to discover your own dancing capabilities and it will surely inspire you to move. This course is especially beneficial to anyone who is interested in finding out how to move with more awareness and become more creative and articulate in their movements. The course aims to develop your ability to improvise and create movement and steps from any given influence, using your own body, music, or your environment as a starting point.

Tamas Geza Moricz (HU/D)
Tamas Moricz graduated from the Hungarian State Ballet Academy in 1989. He danced with the Ballett Frankfurt under the direction of William Forsythe and performed numerous of William Forsythe's works.

European Tele-Plateaus Trans- national Sites of Encounter and Co-Production/ Performance

2010-01-09T04:40:18.419Z

Another thematic focus of the CYNETART 09 festival will be the testing and exploration of new telematic media applications resulting from a continuing mediatisation. This subject will be the context of the European co-operation project European Tele-Plateaus Trans- national Sites of Encounter and Co-Production. The objective of this project is to create virtual sound-image-spaces for the public to walk-in and interact in a sensate-bodily condition. This will be across great distances and within networked virtual environments in real-time.

ETP_body-spaces09 Exploration of Nearness & Distance || experimental performance

ETP_body-spaces09 Exploration of Nearness & Distance is an experimental performance of four dancers with simultaneous
actions in Dresden, Prague, Madrid and Norrköping. The interactive environment is web-linked and divided into four parts. Each
part is bound to explore the relationship between proximity and distance in different ways within net-linked virtual environments.

Part I: body-instruments
Part II: body-visiting of Madrid
Part III: bodies & languages
Part IV: re-body-spaces

Artists:
Sebastián Antico, Emelie Bardon, Christian Björklund, Tina Carlsson, Diana Coca, Heribert Dorsch, dancers of DNC of Prague, Miguel Ángel Elizalde, Fermín Martínez Guzmán, Matthias Härtig, Kajsa Hellstrand, Toni Herranz, Jesús Martín Hurtado, Henrik Johansson, Jacob Korn, Montfrague Fernández-Lavandera, My Linde, Stephane Kyles, Michal Mása, Francesca Me, Johan Melin, Simone Model, Pablo Palacios, Lisa Parra, Pierre Proske, Kristof Slussareff, Matej Sychra, Aniara Rodado, Paloma Rodera, Muriel Romero, Mauro Romito, Fernanda Russo, Marlon Barrios Solano, Alejandro Somoza, Paola Tognazzi, Jaime del Val, Laura Valverde, Emmi Voogand, Frieder Weiß, Julie Zhu, Klaus Nicolai (idea and concept)

Together with partners from Madrid, Norrköping and Prague the project of European Tele-Plateaus Transnational Sites of Encounter and Co-production (ETP) was launched by TMA on the occasion of CYNETart 2008. The networking of virtual environments is based on the long-term conceptual and practical activities that TMA have been pursuing in close co-operation with the systems developer Frieder Weiß. The project aims at creating virtual sites of sound and vision for public walk-in. By providing a virtual net-linked environment these sites allow sensory-physical interactions over long distances in real-time. The visitors physical activities are linked and embedded in a trans-local virtual environment. This is accomplished by the creation of so-called hyper-locations, i.e. the web-based integration of various locally significant sound and image processes.

A joint venture production of the following partners: CIANT Prague (Czech Republic), reverso Madrid (Spain), BitNet Norrköping (Sweden) and TMA Hellerau (Germany).

Date

Heike Fetzer (management)

Since the very beginning, the music of Robert Henke a.k.a Monolake has invariably featured a
highly cinematic quality and sonic depth. The space in between the beats has always been treated with the same care and attention to detail as the beat itself. In order to convey this exciting mixture between massive energy and crafted atmospheres even more convincingly in a performance situation, Monolake have recently pioneered in bringing surround sound to the club. A concept that only works within a real live performance. It shows that a club still holds surpises and new experiences for you. But Monolake live is not just an aural sensation, it also incorporates highly advanced visual elements. Utrecht based media artist Tarik Barri generates real time video graphics which are manipulated by the sound of the performance; constantly moving shapes in space. The result is an impressive combination of art and technology, an audiovisual journey thru previously unknown worlds and way beyond the classic DJ setting.

The world wide web appears as an open space. But there are state authorities acting behind the globalisation: an American network (.gov .mil .com) has been extended by national domains (.de .fr .ch). This division of the digital data network marginalises humans, who are oppressed in terms of eviction and censorship. Control by the established nations makes it impossible for unrecognised communities to articulate, legitimise and finally also to legalise themselves.
