Real Time Composition Study

The SCA's Rob Kitsos and Martin Gotfrit (recently retired!) and SCA MFA grad Yves Candau have collaborated on Real Time Composition Study for this year's Dancing on the Edge festival, which is on its 30th year. In a recent short interview in the Jewish Independent newspaper, Gotfrit described their collaboration this way:

We are three artists with varying interests in dance, sound-making and music, etc., who are exploring creating abstract work spontaneously within the confines of a set space and time. [...] The work is entirely improvised but, since we’ve been rehearsing (i.e. meeting and exploring movement, sound and light) for 10 months, we have been building an awareness of each other in the space and of our collective efforts. We also work with large conceptual ideas, as well as simple structures, to make it all a little more coherent. The work is not intentionally narrative but words and themes can occasionally emerge.
