Physics and dance’ is an artistic workshop for everyone who is interested in exploration
in the fields of physics and art. Analyzing simplest principles of statistical physics and
applying it directly in the space, by using our bodies as a medium. Breaking down an
equation and experimenting with it, is a creative process, which stimulates both; logical
and visceral parts of our brain. The workshop will include a short lecture on collective
phenomena introducing equations from statistical physics, followed by group activities
wherein participants explore mathematical structures and visual rhythms in the
described physics. The primary goal is to help dancers, physicists and artists access
complex, academic discourse, through movement as well as written assignments.
The workshop will contain authentic movement, contact improvisation, and a final
choreographed etude.
This artistic workshop is open to all adults; performing artists, dancers, physicists,
musicians and art enthusiasts of any level. Presented by Syntheater, contemporary
performance company, based on synthesis of art, ideas and disciplines.
