Consent & Morphic Resonance

Consent

In 1987, feminist musicologist Susan McClary likened Beethoven’s music, and in particular his 9th Symphony, to an act of rape. This dance proposes a counter-argument.

Morphic Resonance

Morphic Resonance is a flexible-length, improvised duet by <fidget> co-directors, dancer/choreographer Megan Bridge and musician/composer Peter Price. In this research-based performance project, a solo dancing body is set into resonance with the sound and space that surround it. Price creates ambient, droning electronic soundscapes, punctuated by percussive loops. Bridge builds movement worlds like architectures that are both kinaesthetically expansive and minutely precise. Each new performance situation is approached as a frame that re-orients and gives new definition to the work.
