Actually, you are giving me some tips and new ideas about that experience I
supervised. Initially it was a kind of translation into body movements of
the French surrealistic procedure of "assemblage". Which I combined with the
youtube sample of Rainer's movement for a collaborative video-dance project.
But the idea of a parkour looks fine too. Differently of mapping a terrain,
one may draw trails in the landscape to be danced by different people. Like
in a procession (- idea to be further explored...)
In a procession the positions and the status of the performers and the
spectators are partially interchangeable. Don't you think that web tools are
stressing this interchangeability?
I am going to take a look to that issue of PARTICIPATIONS.
Meanwhile, the other project I mentioned - Move out Loud - may be accessed
by http://www.rhiz.eu/artefact-14922-en.html
Best regards
Daniel
