Commissioned by Tanznacht Berlin 2012 and Ada Studios, 10 minute duration

 

acoustic sightlines was created using techniques created in Cooney’s teaching practice, Dynamic Expansion called “moveable cinema”. The score for the work was collectively decided upon. The score mapped meetings and interactions between the three dancers who were at all times engaging in the process of seeing/viewing and examining the visual field. Sandra Baltterer edited a video shot by Shannon Cooney a perpetual sunlight reflection, and Anke Eckardt uses a high-density microphone to pick up the real-time sounds of the space and amplifies them.

“I find Shannon Cooney’s research into the idea of the Movable Cinema, as an instrument to train the gaze of the performer differently, very interesting. Also her use of the method of Craniosacral Therapy to produce movement material could become a way connecting spectators differently with dance, stimulating the kinesthetic and somatic experience instead of an intellectual one. I am curious to see how she will develop both instruments in dance performances.” Inge Koks, 2012 Producer Tanznacht Berlin

Georg Friedrich Händel
ACI, GALATEA & POLIFEMO
Arr. Enno Kraus für Mezzosopran, Sopransaxophon, Tuba und Klavier

Eins. / Aci liebt Galatea. / Zwei. / Galatea liebt Aci. / Gut. / Polifemo braucht Galatea. / Hm. Drei. / Liebe? / Jaja, Liebe. / Immer noch gut. / Immer noch gut? / Schwach werden. / Stark bleiben. / Schwach bleiben. / Galatea und Polifemo. / Aci und Polifemo. / Aci und Galatea. / Aci, Galatea und Polifemo. / Und jetzt?

Eine Nacht und drei. Dreisamkeit. Hurra. Und am nächsten Morgen? Ist alles wie vorher.
Und anders. Komplizierter. Schmerz, Freude, Angst. Aber vor allem: Freiheit.
Händel hat es gewusst. Seine Musik weiß es noch immer. Nur wir wissen nichts mehr.
Wie das ist, heute, jetzt, mit Beziehungen und dem ganzen Zwischenmenschlichen. Woran sollen wir uns orientieren, wenn wir doch nicht einfach unsere erste Liebe heiraten, Kinder kriegen und uns dann auch schon wieder fremd werden? Vielleicht waren wir uns auch schon immer fremd. Was fangen wir an, mit all der Freiheit, die niemanden glücklich macht? Wohin mit unserer ganzen Liebe, unserer Lust auf Sex, unserem Bedürfnis nach Unabhängigkeit, nach Geborgenheit?

SELBSTANLEITUNG

CHOREOGRAPHY / PERFORMANCE Marc Philipp Gabriel

Tanztage Berlin 2008
sophiensaele Berlin

Selbstanleitung ist die spielerische Entdeckungsreise eines Individuums: Ein offengelegter Lernprozess, der genau das in Zeitlupe untersucht, was wir schon lange als selbstverständlich zu übersehen gelernt haben. Wir haben vergessen, dass wir motorisch scheinbar banale Bewegungsabläufe wie Greifen, Gehen oder Sprechen uns als Kinder mühsam Stück für Stück erarbeiten mussten. Sich selbst an den Anfang zurück zu versetzen, also sozusagen die Stunde Null zu inszenieren, belebt die längst vergessene Vielfalt an Möglichkeiten, von denen nur ein Bruchteil Eingang in das automatisierte tägliche Leben geschafft hat. Auf exemplarische Weise wird in Selbstanleitung der routinierte Flötenspieler mit der nötigen Unvoreingenommenheit ausgerüstet, die ihm am Versuchsobjekt Querflöte diesen verborgenen Reichtum entdecken lässt. Das Tempo des inneren Lernprozesses bestimmt dabei den äußeren Rhythmus des Stückes und entwickelt daraus eine ganz eigene, selbstgenerierte Dynamik.

SALTO (video)

SALTO is a shimmering slow-motion 10-min-rollercoaster of frictions between rocks, skin, saltwater, wind, feathers, fur, moss and concrete. A single panning movement of the camera circumscribes the dramatically contrasting landscapes of Madeira Island, Portugal. When a human body emerges from the ground in a single dance move, time is removed for a moment before everything melts back into matter. Letting the voices of non-human people resonate, SALTO silently comments on the capitalization of nature for colonial and touristic exploitation.

Drag in Japan – AJIMA (exhibits)

Shot at locations in Japan, April 2019

CONCEPT Marc Philipp Gabriel & Maija Karhunen
PERFORMANCE AJIMA
MAKE-UP Marc Philipp Gabriel
COSTUMES Maija Karhunen
PHOTOGRAPHY Marc Philipp Gabriel

“Drag in Japan – AJIMA” is a performative photo project that extends the notion of drag from gender performance on stage to identity performance in public. It is the second series of photos after  “Drag in Japan – TASO” that pictures a fictive character based on the performers own identity.

“Drag in Japan” uses Japanese urban architecture, parks, cultural sites, people, flora and fauna as a backdrop. The project unfolds as a journey of spontaneous photo shootsactivating public space and people into moments of a show. The character AJIMA is copy-pasted into Japanese public contexts. She enters cityscapes and landscapes, claiming reality into fiction into reality into fiction. Surfing the paradoxes of Japanese contemporary culture, situations continue to emerge from editing, blending and overwriting past, present, future, space and perception. The question of culture, appropriation and ethnicity is queered along with body shape and gender. While a human figure appears in front of a background, she might not be the protagonist, but a pivot point around which the context unfolds its own agency. Urban and rural Japan is rendered into ephemeral stage scenography.

 

GIRO (Video)

Giro narrates the trajectory without showing us the destiny – the camera follows the movements as such creates its narrative – the character hides behind the camera and reveals that feelings don’t want to be shown – Perhaps the film tells a story of loss or recovery even – but the capturing movements confuses perspectives – the soundtrack guides us into something particular – enigmatic like the landscapes that unveil environments and its capacity to dazzle – the film is a book that has been opened and not yet closed. A spinning game of guessing – a time that has not yet come and long ago left behind.

LAVA – VIDEO

 

LAVA starts where the crack opens wide, to drip drops of a liquid future. Reminding us of the forces of nature and its inherent movements of transformation. The real witches of daily life, besides fighting for their existence, are taking care of a large number of people. So does Earth to us. LAVA sheds light on the importance of taking care of the elements that constitute all living beings on Earth and beyond.
