This is Now the Environment of Dance

This is now an environment for dance

Place the body and perceive the situatedness of these two specific elements.
This place. This body.
The body is equipped for impressions and expressions.
This body/place auto-generates impressions that can be expressed.
This is now an environment of dance. The body/place “en-veers” in its relationality.
It camouflages itself in itself through dance.

Utifrån Utåt - From outside towards the outside.

My body is not mine.

The body is not mine.

The body is not me.

I’m not me.

When I dance, I’m not me. When the body dances, the body is dance.
My body is not mine when I dance.
The body is never mine and when I dance - when the body dances – I can perceive that it is not mine.

(Only?) when the body dances it is clear that it is not me.

I lose my self to dance.

There is a body.

In the awareness that I am,
there is a body.
I’m in relation with it.
We are relational, my body and my me. Lately,
I have been thinking about dance as relational. We sometimes say dance is social,
but when I’m dancing on my own, who am I socialising with?
It is a meeting with my body and me in which they merge and by merging become what they are,
indiscernible from each other. (Not only) when the body dances with me – when we dance our relational dance – I’m able release the illusion that the body is mine and notice that I’m not it.

How will we take our bodies with us into the future?

                        There is a place. In space. 

Our awareness will be situated through the experience of a body.
Maybe the body will experience itself as being in a different place then where it is. Its experience is virtual,
as all experience is. It is an experience of something and not something in itself. My experience of reality is not [real].

There will be a time.

                               No, there will be a now,
                                                          in what we call time. 

But it does not exist until it is. The future does not exist. It is not a time that exists that we can go to. We can bring nothing there. In relation to now, there will be future. It will then be now, and now will be past.

                                There is now. 
                                             There are nows. 
                                                            Other nows. 
                                                                        Just like now. 

Now - experience comes through an experience of body. Of being something somewhere. We can choose to enter that experience through dance.
Not as a constant state but as a brief encounter.
It does not demand physical skills. It demands an experience of physicality and a playful openness towards the relational reality of body, place, and awareness.

Here is what that you can, in a later now, can be with body and dance:

Place the body and perceive the situatedness of these two specific elements.
           This place. 

               This body. 

The body is equipped for impressions and expressions.

This body/place auto-generates impressions that can be expressed.

This is now the environment of dance.

The body/place “en-veers” in its relationality.
It camouflages itself in itself through dance.
