A coproduction with : WORM Rotterdam and iii

Scores are used in music, dance and performing arts as a way of recording or triggering compositions and choreographies. They can be read, interpreted and performed by the artists themselves, or by other performers. This workshop will look at how to make and read different kinds of scores using your body and voice.

We’ll be diving into topics such as: how can you develop a notation system that both captures what you want to communicate and can easily be interpreted by performers? What elements of a performance do we choose to include and leave out in a score?

In The Body as a Score-workshop we’ll be using text, speech, and graphic elements in our scores, and our bodies and voices as instruments. Please bring your own texts to work with (a recipe, a poem, a novel, etc.). No previous experience in any form of score-making is required.

Much of their work is concerned with how our filtered ways of sensing both limit and extend the ways we understand, categorize, archive and compose the world. Yun curates the lecture-performance series BARTALK in The Hague and organizes workshops at the intersections of art, music, and technology at iii (the instrument inventors initiative).
