WUK – ImPulsTanz Wien
In the second piece of the series o.T., Ian Kaler together with Philipp Gehmacher and music producer Aquarian Jugs aka Planningtorock investigates connections, commonalities and threshold areas as possible approaches to movement and dynamics of his movement practice specially developed for o.T..
Subsequent to the first part of the series – (the emotionality of the jaw) – (gateways to movement) further develops the solo concept as and with an interplay of the actors. (gateways to movement) marks a process of mutual questioning and challenging, and offers a playful approach to how friendship, companionship and complicity may trigger overcoming the predictable and make it accessible.
The concept implies interweaving and pulsating of inner and outer movements, balancing un/familiar states of permeation in moments of encounter. Let us enter the space with our movements, steps, emotions and conditions in order to integrate our un/foreseeable and currently uncanny world!
