The Little Great People
TLGP was a sequence of 3 duets, all with different themes and feelings. We worked with the ideas of polarity, reflectings and absorbing, nature, and social interaction.
A lot of the music was created by manipulating a single recording of a voice and the sounds happening in the environment around the recording. Also text and remixes of works by Beethoven and Ludovico Einaudi.

Nous
Nous (which means mind or reason) was a dance work about the inner struggles of the human mind. The inter and intrapersonal fights or storms we have to walk into every now and then to progress and survive. It surrounded the audience in 6 channel surround sound.
” And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over but one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm is all about” – Haruki Murakami
