Incorporating imagination, memory and cognitive tools his techniques are used as means to expand the possibility of any preconceived technique. In this intensive, students will experiment with Mr. Paasonen’s task-based improvisation and his approach to cultivating original material. Afternoon / 15 00 - 18 00: Amplify Explore various possibilities within the concepts, techniques and ways live video, choreography and dance can be seamlessly integrated into one another and feed each other creatively.

Numerous Berlin-based productions stage productions have concentrated on theme-specific improvisation methods and the relationship of live video installations and the performer.
