Note 2 One Another is about the experience of connecting and disconnecting – to be one, alone, singular. To know and experience the difference between solitude and loneliness. To feel whole or crushingly empty. To not connect or to forever lose a connection, or to feel connected even when that person is no longer there. It is something that is constantly happening to all of us. To be or to share with another initiates a whole different spectrum of emotions. To be part of a wider group, a smashing party, connecting or not to many multi-faceted networks which are there, ongoing, continuous, ending and beginning, with or without me.

The intention of the production design of 2 One Another is to frame the action, while my intention as costume designer is to get out of the way of that action while simultaneously dressing it.

A most fascinating part of the whole design process is how the costumes evolve. What does one clothe a dancer in, given that an audience is there to see limbs, torsos, hands and faces, feet, necks, spines, shoulder blades moving through space? What the dancer wears is not there to tell a story, these dancers are not characters, and covering their bodies with real clothes would be a waste of time. So what do the costumes mean? All I’m doing here is creating a second skin for each performer, one that is unique to each dancer’s body while at the same time visually connecting every body that is on stage to one another. 8—9 #SDC2OneAnother sydneydancecompany.com

Note The score is a journey in four movements; each explores different emotive qualities that can surface when we relate 2 One Another. Rafael had earmarked a number of pieces and together we explored and edited these musical possibilities, using Samuel’s poetry as a backdrop and dramaturgic catalyst. The musical styles and composers are varied – from new classical music to Renaissance and Baroque landscapes, rich soundscapes and driving electronica – seemingly disparate musical styles – a reflection of the different human emotions we all encounter. I incorporated Samuel’s poetry into the work by treating each poem as a ‘gesture’ in response to the movement. I electronically processed recordings of the spoken poems and set them into my original music.

The wonderful Spanish electro acoustic composer Murcof opens the work with Oort – a beautiful and sometimes disorientating piece that creates the perfect setting for the exposition. In the back of our minds, we always referred to this section as Welcome to our Universe. I created small sound bytes and musical interludes containing Samuel’s poetry to bookend the Murcof, inviting the audience into our universe. We then move into a beautiful Renaissance piece Lamento della Ninfa performed by Canto Amoroso. The Second movement explores ‘loving and falling’ and features two wonderful cello ensemble works by Hildur Gudnadottir and a Baroque styled Cello and Continuo improvisation by Paolo Pandolfo.

The Third movement is a musical climax exploring the idea of being ‘pushed over the edge’ and the emotional duality of ecstatic 10—11 #SDC2OneAnother sydneydancecompany.com . for Sydney Dance Company’s AM I 2016 Sydney Biennale.
