Abstract:

Dance archives, like other archives, store documents of past events. They are particular in that the documents they store document dances or choreographies, which are also stored in the memories of the dance artists involved. This chapter examines the relations between documents of dances and bodily movement memories by tracing the processes of two dance pieces that dealt with these issues in very different ways. The first is the author’s reconstruction of Dore Hoyer’s dance cycle Affectos Humanos, for which a dance archive provided film and other documents of this cycle. The second piece is a duet the author made with his father, in which he experienced the reality of movement patterns and habitual postures that get stored in one body and passed on to the next through imitation. The dance archive is a particularly productive place to explore und understand the relations between document, body, and movement.

Abstract:

The chapter focuses philosophically on theatre as one of the acoustic spaces for staging in which sound design acquires an ever higher status in an advanced technical intermedia interplay. Theatre-dramaturgy is transformed into intermedial dramaturgy. The author notes a fundamental “acoustic turn” in theatre, which locates compositional processes within new audiovisual interplays. “ICH2 Intermedial Dance Performance for Planetaria” (2005–2006)—a cutting-edge hybrid form of theatre using advanced digital technologies—is discussed. The performance combines expressive body movements, 360° interactive motion graphics, and sound. In this way “ICH²” is a unique piece of the emerging genre called digital theatre, in which technology enables alterable and immersive stage settings and a new acoustic space. The author explores Merleau Ponty’s conception of embodiment, Lacan’s conception of the “imaginary turn,” and aesthetic innovations in the domain of scenography, thus reflecting historical, theoretical, aesthetical, and practical aspects.

Abstract:

This chapter examines the relationship between blackness, queer vulnerability, and the mechanics of movement and dance. It uses anecdotes to make an argument for downward movement and concaveness as movement techniques, responses to the physical threats intrinsic to black ontology. It examines the relationship between those movements and shapes in the black body to an emergent style of performance called “queer dance.” This relationship might be identified as a type of “freak technique”—and always already othered practice. The chapter also considers a more familiar relationship to gravity in terms of making interventions into dominant narrative arcs in dance as well as capitalist America. It argues that these interventions are made complete by their pairing with recovery—it is not only the get-down that steals movement away into blackness and potential queerness, but its coupling with the get-back-up.

Abstract:

Chapter One introduces the concept of affect and its production through dance in advertising. Affect plays a key role in advertising’s ability to engage consumers in the production of cultural meaning. To this end, I argue that the marketing value of dance lies in the ability of the dancing body to produce affect through kinesthetic empathy and correspondingly to create the appearance of relational meaning and agency. By placing affect theory into dialogue with theories of cognition and kinesthetic empathy, I articulate how and why the moving body in advertising requires its own analysis. In these ads, choreographed movement holds the key to fully understanding the production of affect, affect’s contagion, and its role in the production of social relations and cultural meaning.

Abstract:

Dancing Women: Choreographing Corporeal Histories of Hindi Cinema, an ambitious study of two of South Asia’s most popular cultural forms—cinema and dance—historicizes and theorizes the material and cultural production of film dance, a staple attraction of popular Hindi cinema. It explores how the dynamic figurations of the body wrought by cinematic dance forms from the 1930s to the 1990s produce unique constructions of gender, stardom, and spectacle. By charting discursive shifts through figurations of dancer-actresses, their publicly performed movements, private training, and the cinematic and extra-diegetic narratives woven around their dancing bodies, the book considers the “women’s question” via new mobilities corpo-realized by dancing women. Some of the central figures animating this corporeal history are Azurie, Sadhona Bose, Vyjayanthimala, Helen, Waheeda Rehman, Madhuri Dixit, and Saroj Khan, whose performance histories fold and intersect with those of other dancing women, including devadasis and tawaifs, Eurasian actresses, oriental dancers, vamps, choreographers, and backup dancers. Through a material history of the labor of producing on-screen dance, theoretical frameworks that emphasize collaboration, such as the “choreomusicking body” and “dance musicalization,” aesthetic approaches to embodiment drawing on treatises like the Natya Sastra and the Abhinaya Darpana, and formal analyses of cine-choreographic “techno-spectacles,” Dancing Women offers a variegated, textured history of cinema, dance, and music. Tracing the gestural genealogies of film dance produces a very different narrative of Bombay cinema, and indeed of South Asian cultural modernities, by way of a corporeal history co-choreographed by a network of remarkable dancing women.

Abstract:

This chapter examines consciousness, or more accurately “extending whole body consciousness,” as the core purpose of somatic studies. It first considers the notion of ethereality in dance, noting how contrasting subtle ethereal movement would be solid strongly delineated movement, restrained and earthy; some of these strong qualities are found in the invigorating stamping dances of India and Africa. The chapter goes on to discuss somatics in terms of somatic affectivity and phenomenological awareness, arguing that how self and community are cultivated makes a difference in somatic contexts for performance; the important role of the teacher in transformational dance somatics, insisting that she and her consciousness are a living part of it; dualism from a gender perspective; and the use of phenomenology in terms of its critique of dualist theories of body and mind.
