A suspected anomaly in the human genome has caused a few individuals to display behavior never observed before: abstract movement; sudden vocalisation; wordless communication with other entities; uninhibited sensuality; and an acute artistic sensitivity. The scientific community has decided to address them as Homo saltator referring to their dance-like behavior. Scientists all over the world have started taking somatic based dance classes to become more familiar with the issue at hand. Two of these individuals have been spotted around the natural reserve of Orlången in Huddinge, south of Stockholm. In #6, Benjamin Pohlig talks with dancers Eliott Marmouset and Víctor Pérez Armero about an enigmatic durational piece, or is it performance, or maybe a social experiment.
Explorations of Now is a collaborative project between Cullberg, Kultivator and The Institute for Future Studies, and funded by the Postcode Foundation. 12-15, 19-22 August 2021.
