2012 - Kino Euphoria and Vadelma fest

Some time from last update... Facebook has been lot easier to use.
But! This is what we've been up to!

Again Teatteri Olemus made a performance on Vadelma Fest 2012 in Alppipuisto, Helsinki. Same time an organisation called Euphoria Borealis arranged a kino kabaret so of course it sounded like a "extremely good idea" to combine these two to one art experiment: How to make short film of/during an improvised performance in front of an audience. And that's what we did on Vadelma fest, performing were dancers from Teatteri Olemus and participants of Kino Euphoria, 3 persons with camera came from Kino Euphoria and making music were the director from Teatteri Olemus together with boys from Vadelma. It helped a lot that Kinolab was full of glitter costumes... :D


With few of the same people we already experimented with the idea of screendancefilm, or mostly that how to make one or more importantly how to twist our brains to see the film making more like dancing. During the first session of Kino Euphoria, six person shut themselves into room for one night to experiment with movement and that material was screened 60 hours later as a 1 minute film with live music accompaniment. The feedback was so positive that we are thinking of editing it longer (there's a LOT OF good material still left) and making composed music for it. Might take few months before have actually time to do that. Untill that, here's the 1 minute version without sound.

Also, Teatteri Olemus DID participate with 3rd film at the same Kabaret... But we hold it behind passwords just little longer time still... While waiting that, please enjoy these two.!

October 27. would have been Kazuo Ohno's 104th birthday...

So, to celebrate this, tiny group of butoh-enthusiast organised a
"Butoh Flower Dance Flashmob in Honor of Kazuo Ohno" in facebook, so that in all corners of our round world people would go out to dance with flowers to the universe at the same time. We were not many but we did it.
 
Teatteri Olemus took part on this in Norway, in the tinyest village next to Hardangervidda, which is the biggest mountain plateau on Northern Europe. Allthough local folk art students didn't really know what was going on, they still joined dancing and playing and (en)joying. And that, I think, is the point of it. :)
