FROM LAST SESSION 7/19
we were joined by drop-ins Caitlin and Steve.
some categories of qualities of text:
judgement/observation, stream of consciousness/deliberate or intentional, poetic abstract/logic or compositional commenting/non commenting
we worked last night on an aunt with the constraint of when choosing to speak, noting whether you are following a judgement or observation and then staying with that one "thought" 'till it's done:
does directness in speech (non-self-consious) allows the audience to relax and absorb?
does use of props act as an entry into conversation with other improvers (a way to break through the "membrane"?
does bowing in/out of open space support clear endings of moments? what would bowing out in open space the moment you noticed you were "out" support?
is there a relationship between hight of audience eye gaze preference and village view? proscenium? what view supports which eye practices inside and outside?
we also did some solo quad practice with witnessers:
with solo quads which eye practices allow the quad witnesser the most support in viewing?
Carolyn, Benj and Sara had some aunt ideas for evolutions of solo quads relating to the role of the witnesser and moving the solos through open space.
We note that outside audience watching solo quads layers a lot of story on.
FOR 7/26
Sara, Jeremy, Teana will not be with us next week, but we should be joined by Benj (and rejoined by Jessica).
Meet again by guard desk by 5 'till so we can get changed and in space at 6p.
I have made a call to continue evolution of my solo quads aunt. PLEASE BRING A PIECE OF MUSIC YOU WOULD LIKE TO SOLO WITH EITHER ON AN IPOD OR IPHONE. (Maybe Carolyn, you might bring your radio/cd player?)
I suspect we will have another text/corridors aunt...
For reals we will also look at the dharma art letter, so bring that too if you have it.
