Event Description
Terra Incognita has received an invitation from a friend of mine to participate in the project described in the two below links. Said friend will shoot a short documentary about it and asked me if I wanted to bring a kind of performance to one of the pianos while she films. So, we will develop and perform a site-specific, kinetic-installation work to be filmed in public. We still have to work out the details with the filmmaker about exact time and location. More practical details below.

Polina writes: We will all together work on a very simple movement. It will not be choreographed but rather based on the natural tendencies of each participant and brought to life in a kind of unified presence based in my Kinetic Mind Work.
The nature of this process will test our flexibility and spontaneity. We've reached out to you in the CAVE community because we feel you can handle this and because we think you'll gain from it, as we will gain from your participation. Here's how it will work: You're all invited to as many rehearsals as you can attend (few left now). We don't expect anyone to attend them all. Come when you can. During these meetings we'll communicate the
basic nature and practice of the work and explore some possibilities together - and hopefully grow some unity with those who have not worked with us before. When it comes to the performances, who can come will come. We'll all have to play a little waiting game because of the
documentarian's setting the performance time -- though we do expect it to happen between June 22 and 26. We'll let you know as soon as we do; then you'll let us know if you can attend, particularly because -- due to the number
I know this is a little unconventional, but we like that -- and we have no choice. If you have questions, feel free to
For those who will participate, ideally you'd come to at least two rehearsals prior to the performance. These are the days we will hold them:
Weds (June 15) 6pm-9:30pm Cave Black Studio
Thurs 5pm-8pm Cave White Studio (to be confirmed)
Sun 12pm-3pm Cave Black Studio
Tuesday 4pm-8pm Cave White Studio (to be confirmed)
This will depend on the schedule of performances. We plan for a total of three -- one to be decided by the woman making the documentary, the other two chosen by us, based on the availability of the performers. The two we choose will fall between June 21 and 29.
So, do let me know which rehearsals you plan to attend. If you can attend only one of the aforementioned rehearsals, let me know which; it may not prohibit your participation. Also, please let me know your availability/preferences for days and times for the performances we will choose. We'll try to accommodate as many of you as possible.
I think that's all for now.
Till soon,
Jeremy Goren
