Let ≠ Skok radionica kontakt improvizacije
Scott Wells
Cilj radionice je razumijevanje i savladavanje osnovnih principa kontakt improvizacije, principa leta i skoka, te korištenje tehnike kontakt improvizacije za strukturiranje i razvoj improvizacije kao izvedbene forme. Neke od tehnika i principa koje će se podučavati su: ‘flying patterns’ (podrške, principi odraza, skoka, letenja), ‘fluid acrobatics’ (akrobatika u pokretu), ‘pure contact’(osnove kontakt improvizacije). Let ≠ Skok jer, dok je ‘skok’ isključivo mišićna akcija, ‘let’ proizlazi iz specifične artikulacije tijela te odluke i koncentracije pri izvedbi skoka. Sadržaj radionice proizlazi iz Wellsovog dugogodišnjeg iskustva bavljenja kontakt improvizacijom, u obliku scenskih izvedbi i radionica diljem svijeta.

Flying ≠ Jumping Contact Improvisation Workshop
Scott Wells
The aim of the workshop is understanding and learning basic principles of contact improvisation, the principles of flying and jumping as well as using contact improvisation for stucturing and development of improvisation as a formo f performance.
Some oft he techinques that will be toughts are: ‘flying patterns’ (lifts, how to spring, how to jump, how to fly), ‘fluid acrobatics’ (actobatics in movement), ‘pure contact’(contact improvisation basics).
Flying ≠ Jumping because, ‘jumping’ is exclusively a muscular action, ‘flying’ results from a specific body articulation and concentration during the jump.
The content oft he workshop is based on Scott’s long experience in contact both through stage performance as well as teaching workshops around the world.
