walking con·sens·us walk as a group wherever you want at any moment in optimum con·sens·us con·sens·us happens when there is a multiway flux of agreement on at least a sensory level and when this is expressed into action. there is a state of being together that can exceed rational understanding and agree towards micro- / macro cosmic dimensions translated into this space and time. con·sens·us can reach this state every time again whenever and wherever it is performed. the performers are invited to use their sensitivity AND sensibility to go for what the score can offer them. this score is best realised as part of a workshop that also introduces body/mind-awareness techniques and uses the score as a central module that is continuously refined. depending on the background of the participants, different set-ups of time are needed. there should always be a well-warmed indoor space available with a smooth wooden floor. acknowledgments: walking con·sens·us has been created and developed by Thomas Körtvélyessy. it draws heavily from - (contact-) improvisation - methods influenced by Augusto Boal, learned at "Devising Dialogue" by Leslie Bentley and Larry Bogad, PSi5, Aberystwyth, Wales 1999 - 'fish-swarm' a choreographic element of the piece "massa confusa" tatraum theater, Düsseldorf 2001 - the concepts of 'ethical reformation' and 'responsible anarchy' coined by Mary O"Donnell-Fulkerson © 2006-2008 by Thomas Körtvélyessy. all rights reserved. to get a license-permission please contact info@realdancecompany.org the original license to non-commercially share this score has been withdrawn by the author as of July 25th 2007. |
