This course offers a broad introduction to the experimental world of contemporary dance. The class will emphasize embodied exploration; you will collaborate, improvise, learn technical sequences, and deploy choreographic strategies to build a timeline and map of the lineages of a field with no particular center. Through readings and viewing live concerts we will engage with creators in the field to gain insight into their cultural, historical, and stylistic perspectives. Students will choreograph and perform dances which move across forms, in order to unearth a particular voice inside dance’s unique expressive and communicative environment.
