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.

Invitation<br />

to students<br />

In response to the footnote produce a one-liner. The idea is to have<br />

a panorama, a landscape produced by one-liners:<br />

1 — a subject, a thing, a feeling;<br />

2 — a reference to space;<br />

3 — a reference to time.<br />

Fragments of fake Haikus.<br />

a poem<br />

Shame on more of the same<br />

And rubber boots are made of oil<br />

A question of taste? maybe not<br />

Fall is when leaves change colours<br />

Deal with things one cannot see<br />

I <strong>saw</strong> I <strong>thought</strong> I <strong>remembered</strong><br />

All that happens when getting closer<br />

Become a memory. Now. And cry.<br />

Starting with fake biographical elements. Echoes and reverberations of personal narrations,<br />

fantasies, jokes, made up memories, reflections and lies. An incomplete formation, varying<br />

coherences, blank spots to be filled or left blank for the time being. Torn fabric, made and<br />

produced together. Simple, sometimes silly. At times clear and easy to understand, at times<br />

strange, even mysterious. A temporary landscape to relate to.
