Abstract:
The ‘Instigating, Creating and Responding’ roundtable examined the complex interactions of devising dancers and choreographers. There is a need to reassess the assumptions that have emerged around the concept of the devising dancer by unpicking the intention that lies within the choreographic process. We would argue that without an understanding of this intention, it is difficult to know what the dancer is instigating, creating or responding to. An invited panel offered insights, anecdotes, and pithy criticism of current practices and literature from your prospective as academics, choreographers and artists. Each panel member expressed their position in a 5-minute statement/provocation and engaged in a longer discussion with other panel members, before opening discussion to the floor.
