About the event
At the beginning of the last century, Russia’s renowned choreographer Vaslav Nijinsky caused a scene by “The Rite of Spring” at the premiere, the provocative
piece had been marked in the Avant-garde Movement’s history.
Its “lack of musicality” and almost irritating kind of offbeat dance move, does’t it
sound like one of the best viral materials for social media nowadays?
The workshop attempts to respond to the present “Internet Meme” phenomenon by the form of “The Rite of Spring”. The experimental experience not only explores the relationship between “digital” and “corporeality”, but also allowing us to undergo the “Theory of Relativity” - a series of body movements and facial expressions with a cause, only a few seconds
of it are being edited randomly to generate some online “sensation”.
Every participant will walk out the workshop with a set of personalised “Meme” and
“GIF”. “The Rite of Spring” has been lasting in art history for 111 years, and do you think your “The Rite of Meme” is able to last online for 111 minutes?
