Improvisation, the Specificity of the Ask
An arm draped over my shoulder, accompanied by a gentle nudge…If my improvisation partner offers a movement proposition, I join, possibly suggest a variation. I pay attention to the point of contact, body part, amount of weight I am receiving, noticing where the contact moves. No time to think about what happens next. Before any single thought crystallizes, we are on to the next moment. Moving without contact, our cues are visual. We steal fragments of each other’s movement.
