Negotiated Study

In my Negotiated Study I aim to explore how sound (found and natural, voice, silence and music) have an impact when creating movement and dance. I will not only look at the relationship between movement and sound and how it can be compatible and work together, but also how they can juxtapose to create contrasting clashes. I would like to look further into this area of my study by involving a live musician within explorations. I was interested when watching an interview by Deborah Hay when she raised the question ‘What is a performance without sound?’ I also aim to research into how sound can alter an audience’s view and experience of a piece of work.
