Within the intense program of The ke\u00f0jaKlaip?da <\/a>encounter there was also a Writing Movement<\/em> workshop led by dance scholar from Cecilia Malmstrom Olsson. And as it is in all workshops there were also some tasks. One of the tasks was to go and see a performance and take notes during the performance, i.e., immediately record things, thoughts, words, ideas which come up during the show. And so we did. Our “victim” was dance performance \u201cYES\u201d (\u201cOpen Culture\u201d\/ LT)<\/strong> performed at the Yachts\u2019 hangar at Cruise Ship Terminal. Choreographers- Raimonda Gudavi?i?t? and Mantas Staba?inskas. Dancers – Mantas Staba?inskas and Lina Puod\u017eiukait?-Lanauskien?. Musician – Snieguol? Mikalauskien?. Premiered in 2009 in Kaunas. Enjoy the very raw and draft into two dance writers’ minds. If it would be final text, a lot of what you see know wouldn’t be there. So this is uncensored, honest stuff, no editing done.<\/p>\n

Notes in the darkness Nr.1
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Maija Treile<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes<\/p>\n

Lingerie<\/p>\n

Quietly animals in the zoo cage<\/p>\n

Phonogram<\/p>\n

Romantic sunset at the sea or sunrise<\/p>\n

Nafig (for what) live music, if the record is so intense<\/p>\n

sunset again<\/p>\n

Sea stones (video) or stars<\/p>\n

Rain \u2013 cyberspace<\/p>\n

We’re going to the sun from the door to the window<\/p>\n

The true light from the entrance<\/p>\n

Contrast<\/p>\n

Under the water<\/p>\n

Video montage<\/p>\n

City, hurry<\/p>\n

Frustration, shiver<\/p>\n

Looking for somebody<\/p>\n

a paradise Lost<\/p>\n

Strangers who did not meet each other, but walked the same streets<\/p>\n

Madonna and Child<\/p>\n

Two lonely children<\/p>\n

Torture with sound<\/p>\n

Dzin – tin – tin \u2013 tin<\/p>\n

Video: Pension Fund Advertising<\/p>\n

Another girl in the movie?<\/p>\n

The second round<\/p>\n

Folk dance<\/p>\n

Love is stronger than stomach ache<\/p>\n

We are only two of you<\/p>\n

Our shadows in the sand<\/p>\n

Lithuanians are very romantic<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Notes in the darkness Nr.2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Inta Balode<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cement floor<\/p>\n

would prefer acoustic cello sound not in speakers.<\/p>\n

Two dancers.<\/p>\n

Visibility for audience \u2013 flat floor.<\/p>\n

Is she playing at all?? Recorded sound mixes with live.<\/p>\n

Male started to move. Woman wears skirt. Dressed in white.<\/p>\n

Some folk style holding of hands; ballet stuff. Many light changes plus light from covered windows, holes in the walls.<\/p>\n

Running in circle is always.<\/p>\n

American modern dance.<\/p>\n

Speeding up\/slowing down.<\/p>\n

Projection \u2013 white spots like stars. 3D architecture space.<\/p>\n

He has a dramatic face. He in the front, she in the back of the space.<\/p>\n

Some religious spot of light.They might meet. Shadows. Big gestures. Speeding up again\/changing levels.<\/p>\n

Light from the entrance door \u2013 very disturbing. People look back many times. So long open \u2013 can\u2019t do that! Door stays open I get angry. I lost atmosphere, sorry for dancers.<\/p>\n

Pale picture. Multiplication of the bodies in video. Cello plays only accents. Regular audience is more peaceful about the open door than artists.<\/p>\n

About movement. To enjoy movement based work good conditions are needed \u2013 visibility etc.<\/p>\n

Cement floor.<\/p>\n

Musician looks at the female. Black and white video.<\/p>\n

Too much of everything. How much I miss while write? Sweat on the faces. Speeded up video. Slow dance. Little theatrical gestures \u2013 ah, oh.<\/p>\n

My muscles of but hurt.<\/p>\n

Very wet shirt. Not very thin legs. Short silence. Still. Video again black and white.<\/p>\n

Female emotional solo, some kind of breaking glass sound in soundtrack.<\/p>\n

Curve, turn, jump \u2013 male dance. She is taller than he is. A lot of dancing. Big dance.<\/p>\n

His pants look dirty.<\/p>\n

Big story, little influence on me. Meant to be dramatic? Sharp interruption \u2013 turn to pedestrian state \u2013 have some water. Because of the light it looks they have socks. Restart dancing strongly, softly. Do I watch differently know because they showed a moment of life?<\/p>\n

Sense of they are looking for something. Sense of this is not the final stuff \u2013 they are exploring. Foggy projection. Must be exhausting.<\/p>\n

He is shorter. Leg ronds. Music annoys, cello plus rhythmical recorded stuff. Running, smiling.<\/p>\n

Happy early years love. Too old for that. Pleasure of being together. He leaves into the audience. She follows.<\/p>\n

Cello plus almost faded video of their dance. We still see them, right? Age that has passed? Dancing that has stopped? Nostalgia.<\/p>\n
