NEW GLOSSARY 4 NEW DANCE: “ENTER THE DANCE COMPLEX”

Dance Complex

Within the dance domain, the concept of “complex” diverges from its traditional definition to represent a multidimensional and intricate approach to movement expression. Embracing a nonchoreographic philosophy, a dance complex symbolizes a dynamic system where dance functions as an agent to perturb reality. This artistic paradigm reframes the dancer’s role, positioning them as an agitator who, through movement, engages with reality to catalyze profound moments of synchronicity.

Enter the Complex

“Enter the complex” serves as an invitation for the observer to submerge themselves in the multifaceted universe of nonchoreographic dance. It signifies an induction into a realm where the dancer’s agitation of reality prompts the emergence of profound insights. In this scenario, the observer assumes the role of a hunter, fervently seeking the prized vitalities and surprises that arise from the perturbed reality caused by the dancer’s intricate movement vocabulary.

This dance complex epitomizes a complex adaptive system—a dynamic interplay between the dancer and the observer. Within this intricate system, profound insights and synchronicities are unveiled and cherished as invaluable treasures in the depths of movement expression.
