The Big Bounce – Artist Panel

The Big Bounce was a one day mini-festival of dancing, watching dancing and talking about dancing. This is a recording from the talking part and includes Vanessa Marian, Angela Goh, Sarah Scott and Adam Warburton as well as curator of the event Matt Cornell. (It is preceded by Isabelle Hore-Thorburn interviewing some of the team during her show Agenda on FBi Radio as way of  introduction and context to what is discussed in the panel.)

 

we cover:

  • house dancing
  • collective and individual
  • social constructs and practising them
  • being with dance
  • seeking no authority
  • feeling safe enough to dance
