Day 0/ Andrea Neumann/ Adam Campbell

Exploring strategies for working together

One approach: „iterative process“

Playing an improvisation, recording it, listening to it,

everyone has 3 points of criticism

playing again, recording, listening, 3 points of criticism, and so on

 

Another approach: „speculative approach“

Attemps on strategies to shift the focus from once standard approach of improvisation

Examples:

Slowing down usual mental activity by

• reading silly magazines
• watching films
• dancing
• concentrating on different parts of the body
• not talking before playing
