Element# 1.1 Foreign languages Notes On AbstracT (verb) Dramaturgy FRAGMENT 1 : WHO AM I IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE ? A FOREIGN LANGUAGE WHOSE ALPHABET IS TIME, SPACE AND AWARENESS. AWARENESS THAT OBSERVES BREATH CONNECTING INSIDE AND OUTSIDE, AWARENESS THAT ENACTS RELATIONSHIPS THAT CHANGE AND TRANSFORM OPPOSITES: TIME AND SPACE BODY AND MIND MICRO AND MACRO INSIDE, OUTSIDE OTHER, SELF… ALL EMPTY NOTIONS AS WE NEGOTIATE A CHANGE, A PROCESS INTO THE FOREIGN FRAGMENT 2 : FOREIGN LANGUAGE in dance is the result of a negotiation process between form and awareness of this form through breath and its resonances. Decoding a familiar sign to encode an unfamiliar, foreign sign. For if the sign is foreign, we might connect to its resonance, as we are not restricted in the same way by our habitual associations and understanding. And the unexpected is about to happen while the anticipated may never come. Changing perspective, breathing a choreographic tool. by Arco Renz FRAGMENT 3 : Abstract [verb] Dramaturgy uses the elementary parameters of dance as actors within confining structures.

The process starts from the awareness of breathing. Then the performer physically negotiates her freedom within constricting frames of time, space and movement-architecture. This negotiation process generates conflicts, dialogues, tensions, transformations … Abstract [verb] Dramaturgy uses such poles of opposites to physically formulate questions, concepts, ideas: dual patterns in order to experience. The negotiation process at the core of Abstract [verb] Dramaturgy first decodes movement into a most elementary expression: resonance, then it experiments how to encode this resonance into movements of foreign language. FRAGMENT 4 : [verb] to abstract is a verb depicting dynamic inter-being of body-mind-movement-space-time-awareness. the performer abstracts or empties ”habits of i" to allow this inter-being to unfold consciously. Abstract [verb] Dramaturgy is a flux, an evolutive, uncertain process of dialoguing in a foreign language... 7 8
