in wirewire the boundaries between natural and synthetic, body and machine are disturbed through hysteria and distortion by insisting on that which is too much of a body, too much of a voice. electricity and movement are experienced as a sonic circuit, a thin flexible thread that is drawn out into form. a performance based on sound and contact improvisation.
the performance is a transhumanist experience. the body is an electrical transmitter that is connected to machinery. emotions and senses are used as a resource that generates sound. wires are both amplifying and distorting the movements in a disoriented soundscape. bodies that move in space move in relation to each other.
the bodies abstract themselves into something
other-than-human
they are
humanoids
mimicking cats
whales
angry dogs
a thin flexible thread that is drawn out
into form
as a hybrid between movement performance and noise concert. the smallest touch generates an immense effect when movement is an instrument itself. the electrical pulses from the synthesizers with bodies as carriers of technology. in the performance the body has its own voice; of noise, of hysteria, of taking up space and letting go.
Sigrid Rodian Poulsen er danser og kunstner, og arbejder med dans som en aktivistisk følsomhed. Gennem fysisk sanselighed og tålmodighed, forsøger hun at bryde med narrativer om den sociale krop, og derigennem forny hvordan materialer og situationer føles, smager, lugter og ser ud.
