FESTIVAL PROGRAM 2023
Premiere in A!KO TANZ FEST 2023
One Second
Seconds, the first unit of time.
Seconds are split into infinity or built into infinity.
Is a second a long time or a short time?
A one-second difference between a marathon runner and a 100-meter runner will have a different meaning.
It is about the absolute and relative nature of time.
Choreographer : Jung Myung Hun
Dancers : Alberto Serrano, John Hewitt, Alex Miklosy
Mental processes such as psychological tension, overwhelming self-consciousness, and out-of-control with uncertainty when faced with something unspecified are revealed as physical reactions. A series of processes appear as consecutive moments of an honest, contradictory, or inconsistent body. Similar but different body reactions are generated and blended with certain shapes, and energies while encountering another unpredictable cascade of situations or consciousness.
Einen Moment, Bitte!

GOYO
The choreography is intended to depict the passage of time as physical Expressing “flow” through the body. Flow is a work which is the journey of a stream of valley water, which one infinite flow forms, shows. It starts with inhaling and exhaling, which is the basis of traditional Korean movement. The process of expanding and expressing movement will be implemented sequentially as soon as breathing is activated the whole body is expanded.

Diffractal
Diffractal is a dance piece that explores the trans-mediation of concepts, dance repertoires, and dancers' experiences in order to create a choreographic discourse that aligns with the idea of situated relationality. It is a work traversed by the desire to place the dancer and its intrinsic knowledge at the centre of the choreographic process in order to generate an ontologically entangled authorship that escapes the characteristic hierarchies perpetuated in creative dance processes.
