LOOPING PRACTICE #3



(2026) LOOPING PRACTICE #3 takes the action of looping as a starting point for generating material, examining the relationship between body, sound, and space, negotiating practices of insistence, repetition, transformation and transmission.

The dancers create various rhythms that they distil, expand, chop and phase until they are not quite sure whether there is a beginning or an end, insisting on staying within the looped motion of the input, which in turn creates movement and sound relations as feedback and output.  Adding, deleting and re loading material to the loop the logic of the input constantly mutates into something else.

All three share the responsibility for giving, receiving, stealing, transforming and pausing/cutting movement and sound from each other, blurring any individual authorship to generate collective sonic and spatial patterns.
