What Happens at a Terp Event?
Terpsichore is a system we are designing for human movement composition without
rehearsal. We are experimenting with movement instructions to find those that are meaningful to regular people. At this event,
while Terping, you will be wearing a small computer on your arm much like an iPod. You will also be wearing a set of headphones
through which you will be hearing a pleasant voice. None of the instructions you will be responding to are physically taxing.
Some require interpretation, either physically or emotionally. Most will be straightforward; all of them will be simple to
follow. It's important to be able to move about the room in whatever you're wearing that day. Also, we will be recording
the session for our archives. The fun part of Terping is that you will be creating, with the others, a little art piece in
real time.
Terpsichore, in Greek mythology is the muse of dancing.
Each of these events will last 1 hour and we offer a glass of wine and a snack after the experiment/event.
