2nd Year Performances

"At the age of 40" Kirstie Richardson
-use of photos on slideshow, unrelated, random life photos?
-work in progress sharing, more interesting to witness as creater of work
-pedestrian movement (use of ring- normal movement)
-use of voice (stating the obvious) "I'm married", "I shouldn't be"

"I am still..." Chameleon Dance Collective
-difficult to see, was that the aim?
-audience choose how much or how little they want to see, force the audience to include themselves?
-tight spaces make the audience more aware of own bodies? or to make the audience feel involved? or uncomfortable?

Beginning Duet

Duality
Making decisions is a concious action not a reaction
Staying with one thing is difficult committing
Group score - to witness levels and clear connections an opening when asked to help explore different moments of contact build trust unexpected confidence to just let happen but obviously pre-thought is involved moments of stillness and interruption staying with something e.g unfamiliar (hand on head follow with it, not to do the natural) restriction?
Ending not neccesarilly still or like rest of the group
