Description The work is constructed from many small movement modules that are performed in a sequential order in a cyclical manner. The start of any given performance is determined by where the previous performance finished in the cycle and the end is determined by the stopwatch 50 minutes after the start. Through a process of constant deconstruction and sustained critical dialogue with some of the most distinguished dance artists and scholars in Australia we will focus on two crucial relationships: the dancer-choreographer and the dancer-audience.
