Lend your ear and bend your body: A sound and dance workshop with Tsuyoshi Shirai
Part of the "Walking around surround" series of workshops conceived and conducted at YCAM, this event is designed as an opportunity to experience forms of body expression with choreographer/dancer Tsuyoshi Shirai. Participants will be invited to try and move their bodies according to their own image of sound and how it spreads before it reaches the human body. Tsuyoshi Shirai, an internationally renowned dancer many children in Japan know from NHK's educational TV program, hosts this special summer holiday program with the aim to explore the relationship between sound and body expression based on an understanding of the mechanisms of sound, and how it is translated it into movements and transformations of the body.
* The workshop closes on 8/22 (Sun) with a demonstration by Tsuyoshi Shirai, and a presentation of participants' works. This event is open to the general public (17:00-17:50).
