Rose Choreographic School

A new podcast series. This series seeks to set in motion the possibilities of the podcast as choreographic form, score and modality, as well as haptic space for glitch and grain.

thorns proposes to think with the affordances of postdisciplinarity and the choreographic. This series seeks to set in motion the possibilities of the podcast as choreographic form, score and modality, as well as haptic space for glitch and grain.

This series privileges prompts over topics, verbs over nouns, soft tissue over hard tech, and phenomena over “thing”. Importantly, these are open-ended conversation pieces, experimental dialogues, remote contact-improvisations and conceptual playgrounds, not interviews.
Guest speaker pairings are conceived out of radical associativity, where knowledges and non-knowledges, somatic practices and techniques of living are brought into experimental proximity, constellating themselves through intra-action along the way.

As part of the ongoing imagination of the School we are compiling a glossary of words that artists are using to refer to the choreographic. Every time we invite people to collaborate with us we also invite them to donate to the glossary, hosted on the website.
This series is produced and edited by Hester Cant.
The series is co-curated by Emma McCormick-Goodhart and Martin Hargreaves, with concept and direction by Martin Hargreaves and Izzy Galbraith.
