Trinity Laban, London, UK)
Workshop and film shooting with the visual artist Anna Adahl.
'The workshop: This day-long workshop focused on the choreography of the mass ornament/mass choreography, with reference to the Tiller girls and Busby Berkeley´s mass choreographies in Hollywood in the 1930´s. What these choreographies have in common is the calculated, mathematical movements of the body(ies) creating vast geometric patterns. These choreographies emerged from the evolution of the industrial society. Currently being in a post-industrial society, how does this affect our daily body movements and how would mass choreography look like today? Studying the Tiller girls and Berkeley´s choreographies, in the workshop we worked on mass choreographies made by details of the body, i.e legs, arms, hands, as opposed to the whole body, being part of a mechanised factory'.

Host - Coffee Morning
Discussing Discussions in/as Performance by Trio Collective
14 January 2014
Chisenhale Dance Space, London, UK
Our discussion of Discussion touched on current trends in integrating conversation into performances, in the form of pre-show talks, post-show Q&A’s, etc. as well as the recent emergence of certain conversational formats such as Choreographic Forum, Dance and Critical Theory Group, Coffee Mornings, Groundswell Meetings, etc. in the field of dance. It will aim to unpack ways that discussion can be a mode of production for researching, working, communicating, promoting, rehearsing, bonding, exchanging, and performing. Must we “do?” Can’t we just “talk?” Discuss.
We can talk about all of these things, none of these things, and more.
