Forum Dans #2: Lisa Nelson

Lisa Nelson about "Attentionography", followed by a conversation with Otto Ramstad.

Attentionography

In this gathering, dance-maker, improvisational performer, and collaborative artist Lisa Nelson will share her questions about dancing, survival, communication, and the sense of imagination and shed light on her processes and practices within the frame of Tuning Scores, a container for her movement thoughts. She will also present a sampling of her in-progress creation of a real-time video editing program.

Lisa Nelson has been exploring the role of the senses in the performance and observation of movement for many years. Stemming from an investigation of video and dance in the '70s and '80s, she developed an approach to real-time editing and performance she calls Tuning Scores. She performs, teaches and creates dances in diverse spaces on many continents, and maintains long-term collaborations with other artists, including Steve Paxton, Scott Smith, Daniel Lepkoff, and Image Lab. She has co-edited Contact Quarterly dance journal since 1976. She lives in Vermont, USA.

Otto Ramstad is a dance and video artist and Certified Teacher of Body-Mind Centering® (BMC). For twenty years he has been collaborating with Olive Bieringa as the BodyCartography Project. Otto is a masterstudent in Choreography at the Academy of Dance, KHiO.

The forum is organized in connection to a workshop held by Lisa Nelson for MA students in dance and choreography at KHiO and professionals via the Alliance for Actors and Dancers.

It will be held in English.
