Performance: The Skin Listens Too
Performance
Dancer – Zwei Frauen sich gegenseitig die Augen zuhaltend
© Netta Weiser
Over the past several years, artist Netta Weiser has been listening to moving bodies through microphones, loudspeakers, and radio transmissions, as part of her long-term project Radio-Choreography. After years of listening to dance through sonic technologies, this new work asks how listening itself can be choreographed and performed.
Here, choreography emerges through acts of listening rather than seeing. Voice becomes a form of touch, and attunement a way of moving together.
At the core of the work are choreographic interpretations of listening scores by U.S.-American feminist composer Pauline Oliveros, drawing from her exploration of collective listening as an embodied, political, and activist practice. The title of the piece, The Skin Listens Too, is a quote from Oliveros.
Concept and choreography: Netta Weiser
Performers: Akemi Nagao, Johanna Ackva
Dramaturgical advice: Tal Yahas
With thanks to: Nora Amin, Sabrina Huth, Avigail Kochavy, Raz Mantell, Adi Weinberg, Tamar Witkow, Susanna Ylikoski
Supported by Senatsverwaltung für Kultur und Gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhalt – Arbeits- und Recherchestipendium Darstellende Künste und Tanz and Artport Tel Aviv.
The performance is presented within the framework of fuga, a sound exhibition at the Humboldt Forum commissioned by the Media Department, Ethnologisches Museum, Staatliche Museen zu Berlin.
Supported by Artis through its Exhibition Grant Initiative.
- Venue: Listening Room, 2nd floor, Ethnological Collections
- The event is free of charge. A ticket is required for the exhibitions in the Ethnological Collections. Price: - - 9 EUR (regular)
