as an artist worthy of the name
I will tell you about myself
it’s at the age of 24 when I
finish my last year of study in
biochemistry at the Cork University I
feel a deep boredom
I feel a void in my life and a
lack of passion and so I remember
that I was a fan of skateboarding ding
culture martial arts teens
urban so I hesitate either already
grains a chess club but that
still lacked physical activity
either I’m going to do a dance class
a little hip hop
so I go to the dance is there from the
first course I had the feeling that
my finger was caught in a gear
I felt completely teleported
in another world I absolutely had
learn from motion sequences and by
afterwards create them myself I had the
feeling of being contaminated by the most
beautiful diseases but for the first
times my reason and my intuition is in
showdown
so from that moment my life splits
in two completely hermetic way
on the one hand I’m starting to become
genetic researcher at the University of
cork and the other way very
bulimic
I want to do dance dance classes
of all styles and I notice that very
quick
I use everything I learn for
try to develop my thing and my
gesture so my mind spontaneously
clears the boundaries between styles
dance and without realizing it
um I decompartmentalize a year later
I join a dance school and I
refuses to do the end show
of year because in fact I am not
animated by the ego of the dancer to be
absolutely on stage what interests me
this is again the composition and
during the end of the year show
I see a choreography and I
promises that shocks me
literally why then the
dancers had fixed feet in the
ground and made a sequence of movements
complex with arms and hands
all together whose structure is
repeat in time and evolve I am
really remember m hanging on my seat
and once again I felt
teleported to another world
but this time
it’s real I was completely
hypnotized I drew a conclusion
with movements we can hypnotize
people have little changed perception
of time and maybe that’s the
proper to dance and the art of
to be able to create accelerations
time suspensions I realized
also considers that the constraint ranks
creative do a choreography the
feet fixed in the ground for me it was
impossible and yet it was one of
most visual experiences
incredible i’m a little bit more
far away what had mesmerized me was
a structure a sequence of movements
complex that repeats itself in time and
who evolves and very oddly it has me a
very little reminded of the elements of
science like dna molecules the
cells a series of complex elements
who are repeating and evolving here I am five
years later at the end of my project
research at the university of cork and I
decides to take a few months
sabbaticals to choose my laboratory
research is written a thesis
instead of that I even put on a
video editing software is there like
for the dance it’s completely
compulsive
it means that this tool
the video was an extension of my
gait of choreographers game could
to film movements and recompose them
and I find myself quickly enough to create
hybridization between the two were going
deal on the same level and instead of
find a research laboratory
I create the beautiful called hocus
lab much later I would name it
as a visual mutation laboratory
and choreographic
time goes by and so some time
later I meet a dancer
contemporary called milena
leclerc who is a dancer in charleroi
dances we do not have the same
gestural but a similar morphology
is a way of moving seemingly
troubling because they were
Similar
so she tells me manu we will create a
show together I’m doing ok and so we
recruits two young dancers have wind
studio
and we repeat to create something
but without ambition to be programmed or
whatever it was it was really
pure creation alas the cork theater
to contact me and tell me we would like
you are scheduled to dance country festival
I’m doing great news
except that these two months after and that
milena goes to macau to work for
franck to dragão so I take the
decision to film the show at four
dancers and re projected exactly at
same place
the video puts on three dancers must
know that video is the only source
of light is for me the video becomes
a duplication of reality actually
excuse me it was necessary to send a video
at that moment you’re sorry, not his
Front
it’s a number one
[Music]
thomas you know send the number to if he
please thank you
so I had come to so the theater
of cork decides to program us this
a duplication of reality and I
draw a conclusion that means we
had decided to develop a character
spooky based on our on a
characteristic anne and during a
repeat to dancers who does not know
my past come to see the show and tell me
says manu it’s really weird or will say
mad scientist in his laboratory
I realized that being an artist was a
exposed and that it was impossible to
hide anything and ultimately this
show was for me a setting
scene of a laboratory
touba now you want to go to the
second video thank you so here I try
to broadcast this show and instead of
that we propose to participate in a
biennale of plastic arts and I propose
a photographic journey why
because I always wanted
crystallized frozen motion like
watch the dance you do not keep
that a memory and it is ephemeral and therefore
I used a relatively
simple is photography with
long pauses of darkness and
dancers dancing with lamps
poached
so we get very easily like
Thursday their choreographic signature
bright is calligraphy
then I take these pictures and create
symmetries multiplies the form
of spyro graff that mirror effects
because what I’m interested in is
create relatively abstract things
in an intuitive way so that the audience and
people who come to see him can
tell a story and so for me
the goal is to find meaning and
tells of finding a narration but has
posteriori and very oddly in
some compositions I found
kinds of braid adn kinds of
suspended cells and kinds of
molecules
you remember milena thomas tu
can send the 300th play remember
milena they come back macao and we
decides to make a new show
of course as you know the constraint
creative rock and we have no money so
I want a scenographic elements that
has a visual impact ornans and so I
decides to hang sheets of
paper on nylon threads and that creates
a cloud of paper as sand
becomes a screen of the compounds used
to project video but with
which the dancer can enter
relationship
it does not cost much and it’s
adaptable to wish
the conclusion of this project I surrender
account that there is no break in a
project to another
for me it’s a perpetual laboratory
and sometimes projects so crystallizes I
finds a new obsession the paper
I think I may have spent
far too much time on the edges
college to take notes or
then more seriously in addition to art
of the light movement of the video
I wanted to put my hand on a notion
architectured volume to be able to
master all the elements of a
show as I conceived it after
his many projects I get a
commission from the Walloon Museum of Life
two years in a row
it’s an all-public show it’s used to
showcase their place and I can
condensed in this project there I forget to
every time thomas you can send
the other video please thank you
and so I can condensed everything that
I learned about previous projects
in this show there any public the
organizers are thrilled and the team
technical and artistic also after
these two shows
I make the decision to stop everything
because I really feel that
I start to disperse and that
something in my process
really starts to get high and that
finally it is time that I take
seriously my first love that is
love of movement and finally find
my choreographic signature as I say
it’s finding the essence of art so there
there is a break and so I get into
a minimalist work on the movement
this decision falls perfectly because
a few months before his dancers
breakdance super known in Belgium and
on the international scene
Benedict sustainable nieto bboy hat
send me a message manu I want
to open to creativity I want
work with you I do not hide
that my ego was flattered about this project
there a friend of his whom I knew fabio
from the same group joins us and water
decide to set up a laboratory
choreographic which will give rise to a
show that is called young life
pass where and thomas you can send
other videos
thank you
beautiful it was the first time
I was confronted with dancers of whom I
did not master let go of the island and
of breakdance and they did not understand
mine either I realized
account at this point that my job and my
competence was not to choreograph
shows but that eventually
it was to search for identity
choreographic in the dancer was
find a particular identity than at
final the show was only a
pretext
what I wanted was to create
kinds of mutants choreography I have them
called the x men of the dance but do not
approach was really that so how
did I proceed very briefly
I took movements of my signature
that I gave them as a constraint
but in my mind it’s like I
brought them mutations in their
dances I also used
contracts which was basic and simple
adapted to their dance for example benoît
extremely powerful and animal style I
gave him a box and lines for
that he can play with a few months and
a fabio day see him repeat him said on
would say the Pythagorean Benedict theorem
had found his character
spooky was there pythagoras
I will close with a very last
thomas project you can not say anything about
videos the very latest project it’s very
simple it’s called sic red state i
did it ok I took the previous project
wiegele pathway that was that
choreographic and froze transposed into
digital version
I went back to the video projection
we did the motion capture of the
motion capture with the help of
the world university
and then I added a constraint
I put paper on the ground
they hate me but for me it was
an element to mutate and evolve
their choreographic signature yet
further it allowed them to have a
touched and a balance that had not
not before I found it led to
poetry also a little bit different
I have before singing I had
the impression that I was a bit like
Mr. Miyagi who tells Daniel San
do the same thing all the time very
very restrictive but that after becomes
super fighter so at the end of the stage
in this process to conclude on the
subject of today by moving from the
science to art I learned several
things firstly I never knew
define rochus lab a dance company
a laboratory arts portfolio
visuals and in the end I told myself ben
it’s a living visual organism and
choreographies or maybe a share of
my subconscious I came back too
is going to question me what was going on
between art and science is
initially art and science make
part of one thing I’m not going
develop but I quoted you leonard
of vinci rock paintings and the
pyramids architecture architecture symbols
Maya
I also understood effect is invert
things
I first listened to my instinct and my
intuition and I put my reason and my
faculty of analyzed at the service of this
intuition there and finally I got
realized that as a creative if
I wanted to understand my present is
anticipated my future I had to dive
in my past with sincerity and
depth because everything was linked
thank you for your attention on this I
join my time portal if he
works and I will greet my daughter who
is in the audience goodbye
