BRISTOL CI
Dear dancer, you are warmly invited to envision with us how we would like Bristol Contact Improvisation to be.
As a community CI group we would love to increase participation and representation across national, racial, cultural, disability, gender and mental health boundaries. We believe that a community envisioning process will enable us to dissolve what no longer serves CI and co-generate a creative and collaborative future where a multiplicity of voices can be heard, moved with and danced with. We aspire to an ecologically generative social and individual choreography of and for our time.
The first date is Sunday the 17th of October 10am-12noon. Here we will use the art of CI as understood by us as individuals and a collective to research the ‘what, where, why, when and how’ of CI. There will be large pieces of flip chart paper around the edge of the Wildgoose space. After a brief warm up there will be an open jam, and participants will then draw and write their responses based on movement. There will then be a brief de-brief.
On Sunday the 31st of October from 10am-12noon, again at the Wildgoose space, there will be a verbal exploration based on the movement exploration to further refine. Please bring tea and coffee and croissants (or your pick of other refreshments!) We will hold a cafe style enquiry to enquire further into questions and an inclusive gathering of questions, statements, beliefs and desires. This will be time kept and gently facilitated.
November (Date TBC) from 10-1pm Finally having moved, reflected and dialogued together in October, in November we will draw together the strands of our previous two enquiries to co-create a strategy and commitment for 2022 in regards to the teaching and practice of CI in Bristol, to create a collective of practitioners to energise our learning, practice and celebration of CI.
Notes:
Participation at one of the first two events is required to participate in the final event.
In order to make these events Zoom participation will be facilitated at all events. (While facilitation will work to include all Zoom participants, they will need to stay aware the limits of the medium.)
Participants will need to do a lateral flow test on the morning before each event. Test kits are freely available from pharmacies or via mail order from this link.
It is FREE to attend.
There are limited spaces available at these events, so please contact us to book and let us know early if you are unable to attend.
