Shake Off

Practitioners: Alva Harju Jansson, Louna Contival, Omer Keinan

Director: Anna Biczók

Videographer: Jonas Murman

Our shared form-of-practice this time is Knot #1:

This excerpt begins 16-minutes into the session. Anna began the session by exclaiming: “desire”. She continued to provide prompts throughout the session: verbally, through joining the practice space, and through music.

6-minutes-in: “Start to try to shake all your muscles off your bones…”

7.5-minutes-in: “Now instead of shaking off all, you can choose different body parts and shake those muscles, and also move the location any time to a different part; while continuing what you were doing before…”

8.5-minutes-in: “You can decide if you want to continue the shaking or drop it any time…”

12.5-minutes-in: “You can let other bodies location or movement in the space effect you…”

Omer's note: The stimuli seemingly had a swift, reactive impact on the space. It took much longer for the stimuli to be responded to, to become integrated into the practicing in a more malleable way.
