The Care And Maintenance Of Your Uncertain Movement - A Text Document About How Text Moves The Body And The Uncertainty In Reflecting Critically

Abstract

The Care And Maintenance Of Your Uncertain Movement explores how words formulate a dance based artistic practice and the uncertainty in the words to reflect critically. This text is about seeking where the research intrinsically is in an artistic process, as an artistic process is a collection of many things. That is, what the skills of an artist is, and where the references are. It is about the necessity of making substance and making sense for it to become a substantial research. This is a subjective document that through itself attempts to touch upon what translating a movement based practice into a writing practice does to movement and to the artistic process. It is a critique to what it means to be subjective in text which requires other skills than skills obtained when training performative art. It is a critique to what is read as subjective, compared to what is subjectively perceived as subjective. It is about how the academic context affects creative process, thinking and production of the practical.
