One Apartment Six Drummers
a group of Nordic percussionists use everyday objects to create sound scores.
Dances
Devices
Sound
Body
We talked about kinaesthesia , and what makes audience members really feel something when a dancer is moving.
We spoke of Marshall McLuhan and technology and tools- how they become part of the body
Cognitive Therapy- BF Skinner
(Please go deeper than wikipedia!)
We used objects:
Metronome x 5
Alarm clock
Microphone
Chandelier
Crazy coffee maker
Radio
We spoke of smells: rubber motor smells, coffee, cinnamon.
We danced solos and together. Like a relay race
We spoke of AC/DC and Topsy (not Zippy) the elephant who was used to make Edison's case against AC:
Animating objects
Harmony of sounds of objects
Messes and breaking things
Dropping things
Using the ceiling- pulleys, etc
Rhythm and repetition
