Ein Laboratorium f?r erfahrene T?nzer, Musiker und Installations- K?nstler. Wir konzentrieren uns auf den Prozess von improvisierter Begegnung hin zum Performance Material. F?r die beteiligten K?nstler wird es darum gehen individuell und kollektiv definierte Experimente zu generieren. In der Zusammenarbeit m?chten wir Einblicke erhalten in verschiedene M?glichkeiten von k?nstlerischer Erfahrung und Kommunikation auf mehreren Ebenen. Wir m?chten F?higkeiten neu definieren und Autorit?t hinterfragen, in dem wir uns gegenseitig auf kreativen Schlachtfeldern herausfordern, Leer-R?ume besetzen und Ideen ans Licht bringen. Der Prozess umfasst tanztechnisches Arbeiten, Musik, elektronische Komposition und Stimmarbeit, aber auch das praktische Gestalten von interaktiven Schaltkreisen und Ausl?sern wobei Medien und Installationskonzepte zum Einsatz kommen. Die Gruppenarbeiten basieren auf Interesse und professionellen F?higkeiten. Die speziellen Gegebenheiten der schwelle7 erlauben es den Raum innerhalb der Woche komplett zu ver?ndern und zu gestalten. Am Samstag /Sonntag wird der Raum dann in einer 15 h Performance bespielt und ausgestellt.
