Undulation is an exploration of the cyclical nature of time and the infinite essence that exists within it. Glimpses of eternity peek through the fabric of time, reminding us of the fleeting beauty that surrounds us. The work invites us to embrace the inevitability of change, while also finding solace in the constancy of the universe. It delves into the waves and rhythms of life, with its highs and lows, its ebbs and flows, as interconnected and part of a larger, intricate pattern.

Fragile is a music-dance piece for two ‘instruments’: each using its medium to convey and voice the communicative power of fragility that makes us vibrate and transmit. The idea behind it is to feel exposed, to go through moments of vulnerability and maximum porosity in which the wonderful essence opens up, drop by drop. The living material is shapeable into endlessly renewed textured forms, absorbing the surrounding elements to create an ephemeral, transient work for the present moment. This work is designed for you, who have the strength and sensitivity not to look away and shift the subject, who launch yourself into flight and run the risk of falling if need be.

soundance festival berlin #8
13 - 16 June 2024

Fragile, undulating, inspired by a glade - the eighth soundance festival berlin presents a variety of encounters and mutual inspiration between dance and music: choreographed, improvised, instrumental, live or recorded. Four intensive festival days invite you to watch, listen and participate!

In „Glade“, the artists of WILD ACCESS explore our relationship to urban nature. Wave movements combine dance, percussion and video projection in „Undulation“, in the duo „Fragile“ the instruments of the body and a saxophone create a fleeting work of the moment. A series of short choreographies explores the diverse emotional states of interpersonal constellations in „Er...Sie...und andere Geschichten“. And on the last day of the festival, young and old are invited to join in - with sound and movement, of course!

Artistic production management: Jenny Haack
Social Media: Aïsha Mia Lethen Bird
Website: Gunther Heise
Technical direction: Asier Solana
in collaboration with the DOCK 11 / DOCK ART team

This workshop invesigates the shortest porion of ime we experience, the instant.
Listening to the moment in the phenomenon of improvisation is the key to dialogue: how we can expand the ephemeral blink of an eye, what are the intuitive strategies to connect to others and to what happens, how to be available and ready for the unknown, how to say YES to the unexpected?
Workshop for dancers, movers, performers, singers, live musicians, You are All and Each very welcome. Workshop language: English
With Claudia Pelliccia (Dancer), Laurent Charles (Musician)
10 am – 1 pm

Scribbles: DIY – Performance
– a workshop for everyone aged 6 and over
So 16.06.2024, 11 - 12.30 Uhr

DIY dance and music! Be it sound, movement or something in between, scribbles can only be realized if you are there – because you do them. We have developed plays that can be performed spontaneously by children and adults. The result always remains open. Let’s see what emerges together: We scribble and tickle new pieces into being – scribbles!
Workshop leaders: Daniella Strasfogel, David Bloom
