Benedikte, Nilla, Tanja och Niklas träffades den 5 februari. Vi talade om den Tiny Festival Benedikte arrangerar i maj och om Destination Atalante nu på måndag den 11/2.
Här är Benediktes idé inför Destination måndag 11 februari:
Inför måndag kom en idé om en visuell backdrop - rörlig bild. Jag filmar tågresa till en liten ort ’min destination’. Jag pratade med @Eva Svaneblom igår på 3:e våningen. Hon har filmat resa till ’sin destination’ - en hemort.
Jag funderar helt fritt: Om jag samlar in (ni kan sprenda) några minuters filmning från något på väg/ifrån å klipper jag ihop det (väldigt basic) till en gemensam video. Sen ser vi vad det blir för miljö på scenen att improvisera i? Mobilfilmning funkar i HD (med liggande filmning) Förslagsvis är det filmer från de som är med på scenen på måndag. @Niklas Rydén ’leker’ med ljudet. Vad tror ni?
Här är Benediktes info om Tiny festival

WHAT IIIF? what is it?
The research festival WHAT IIIF? asks the absurd question, ‘Can improvisation be
documented?’ What IIIF? Gothenburg is the third beta version (the first was in
Amsterdam in 2017, and number two in London in 2018). WHAT IIIF? brings together International Interdisciplinary Improvisation researchers from around Europe and globally. We focus on a method or a concept for several days, and through labs, discussions, performances and observations, we ‘document’ improvisation. Our thought is that this work will feed and develop the open source website www.improvisation.wiki
For the first two beta festivals, we focused on documentation methods - video in
Amsterdam and writing in London. This time we are interested in the way we connect to other people with our improvisation work. We want to think about the fact that we are always addressing someone and within that awareness, on a meta level, ask how do I use material in the improvisational moment, put it out and put it forward.
THE PARTICULARITIES OF WHAT IIIF? GOTHENBURG
- Being in the same space (located at the ‘white cube gallery’ named Galleri 54) for the entire time, creating the space, covering the walls, ongoing ongoing.
- Observers will be invited, to participate or witness, in the space, or through the windows. Passersby are the instant witnesses
- Collaboration with the Tiny Festival Producers and Teater Trixter which provides the spaces and an opportunity to perform
- Time to reflect, listen and document on why we do this
- Time to eat together
- Provide opportunities for encounters with local and international artists/researchers
There is no official participation fee. You are responsible for your travel and housing. We split the costs of the festival among ourselves, usually this does not exceed 40 euros each. If you would like to join us, please write Thomas at thomas@genetic-choir.org with a paragraph telling us why you are fabulous, and why you find a research festival interesting.
