I saw I thought I remembered
The as if it’s just about to happen book series invites a reengagement with four workshops, facilitated within HZT Berlin’s BA Dance, Context, Choreography course between 2014–2016. Four of HZT’s teaching staff initiated a collaborative writing project with colleagues and HZT students and alumni to access what persists through the entanglement of their artistic and pedagogic practices. They returned to the pedagogic events with the question “What was and is it doing and what can we create with it now?” Initial experiences, notes and memories from the workshops were approached with a strategy of interruption. A specific set of parameters informed a structure of excerpts, footnotes, invitations and responses that produced a new order of connections based on selectivity, discontinuity and proliferation. As a reader you are encouraged to be involved with the passages of writings and drawings within these four books — to follow, skip across, take apart, expand, reassemble, rewrite and respond further. You are invited to experience what is still creating itself, as if it’s just about to happen. IMPRINT Project editor: Litó Walkey. Copy editor: Karen Christopher.

Caught in the movement process of migration.<br />
We were awaiting something that in fact had already begun. – Erin La Cour<br />
Frames of time, specified intervals of engagement. Triggering and jumpstarting a fragment<br />
that is just this and for now, that holds possibility of being joined by another fragment and<br />
transforming into something else on the way, while going, on the move, along for a trip, a<br />
travel, a way through, across, migration.<br />
A setting in motion with directional intent. An intention to move toward somewhere, but<br />
not to get to a place. A place-seeking, not a place-finding.
