Noise for Nothing
In Noise for Nothing the dancers attempt to embody the concept of "noise" in the plurality of its meanings. There is the familiar acoustic noise, but there is also the signal and interference noise. Rate fluctuations on the stock market are referred to as noise, as well. The performers try to manifest the qualities of noise in a physically abstract form, seraching for the "glitch moment", for the error, the disorder, the pointlessness, and the corresponding potential. They play with the connotation of the term "noise" as a superimposition of many independent individual elements and translate them into unpredictable and erratic movements.
