Abstract

In this ground-breaking interdisciplinary collaborative composition, improvisers from dance, music and visual art interact freely making conscious choices informed by a recent psychological model of improvisation. To be read as a score, the model is represented in a series of new sculptural objects based on an Expressionist drawing by Wenzel Hablik. First performance on Jan 16th 2016 in the Reid Concert Hall, University of Edinburgh by the composers with Dr Sophia Lycouris & Dr Ana Almeida (ECA, dance), Dr Franziska Schroeder (Sonic Arts Research Centre QUB, saxophone) & Emma Bowen (Garage gallery, visual art)
