Key Words

Ambience, Anti-Commentary, Anti-Illustration, Autonomy, Composition, Found Dance, John Cage, Minimalism, Movement, Neo-Dada, Nothing, Nothing to Say, Open Text, Perception, Purity, Readymade Dance, Silence, Time,


About

Inspired by John Cage’s ‘Lecture On Nothing’, this performance is a recitation and physical improvisation of Cage’s text, guided by his principles of composition and writing. The idea of using music done by words and performing a parallel action as another temporality follows the desire for interaction with the non-interference.
