Pre-choreographic Elements is an interdisciplinary research project initiated by ICKamsterdam/Emio Greco | PC that is a continuation of previous research projects around documentation, notation and transmission of dance:
Capturing Intention and
Inside Movement Knowledge.
Focusing on one of the initial phases of the dance creative process, the creation and development of movement, the research of
Pre-choreographic Elements, by means of a process of selection, definition and demonstration of selected movement concepts from the repertoire of Emio Greco | PC aims to develop an improvisation system. The nature of these movement concepts is generative: they allow dancers to develop their own movement material. They act as instructions around movement intentions and qualities whoch the performer needs to appropriate in order to make use of them. On the one hand they inform on the artistic interests and vision of Emio Greco | PC, on the other hand they challenge performers to test and develop their own improvisational, interpretational and dramaturgical skills.
Looking at issues of terminology, formats of representation and use of interactive environments, the research project
Pre-choreographic Elements aims to create, in collaboration with various partners, an interactive online glossary that can serve as reference tool for a dance improvisation system.
