Moving_Imagined Fragments is an instant composition performance which explores ways in which the linear perception of time can be triggered through movement and narrative. Relating to the process, scores are used as a choreographic tool; an attempt to encapsulate the past in the form of scores. Through the activation of them, the past is negotiated and redefined. It receives a new form; a fluid past, a fluid here and now and is a constant process of messing up the here and now. Finally the question becomes, what is the here and now? What are the substances from which an instant is made and how do we experience the instant?
Learn more about the process:
If our heart were large enough to love life in all its details, we would see
that every instant is at once a giver and a plunderer, and that a young or
tragic novelty-always sudden-never ceases to illustrate the essential
discontinuity of time.Gaston Bachellard,
Intuition of the Instant
