Consistencies (Certini, Zerbey, Noble)

CONSISTENCIES paths of improvisation
dance and choreography: Charlotte Zerbey, Alessandro Certini
live music: Steve Noble,
light: Vincenzo Alterini
A performance on the power and the fragility of dance and music, witnessing the vitality of the body as thought and sound yearns to be physical, comprehensible fully only through the perception of the senses.
PIANO DI CONSISTENZE is inspired by the concept of ‘piano’ that Deleuze and Guattari lay out in their book ‘A Thousand Plateaus’. Plateaus are intended as any multiplicity connected to others, so that every event has a relation with the entire system, similar to the level of synapses in the brain. A ramification or web, as it would be called today, without a central principal.
This concept of the performance puts attention on the creative act, as a collectively conscious process. The dancers construct plateaus of concatenation (with gestures, rhythms, geometries) merging into the reality of the environment wherein the action is found (place, space, scenery, public) but also capable to imagine a reality that does not yet exist. Dance, because expressed through the body, is a complexity of many plateaus; the concepts expressed here become comprehensible only through the perceptions of the senses, rather than through the rational interpretation of a choreographic story.
