Probiotic Dreams: Becoming a Soundflower
As humans, we subconsciously categorize our surroundings into clean and unclean zones, and thus also good and bad, but the experience of dirt is not a condition that exists on its own. It exists in relation to other things; something is experienced as dirty in relation to something else, and it is we humans who have the power to define what is clean and dirty. Its a culturally and socially conditioned mechanism. hat happens to all the things that fall outside the category, the unclean, and how do we relate to this hierarchy, in spaces as well as in our bodies? These ideas were explored in a workshop facilitated together with Karoline Amalie Severinsen for 5 bachelor students at NTA in the fall of 2023. The workshop juxtaposed the topics of care, dirt, and disgust, which we explored through a myriad of expressions, allowing connections to appear fluidly. We worked with a gigantic dough that became the frame for an improvised performance where the topics melted into eachother with the question if we can embrace the nasty and disgusting with a sense of care, and it could have the potential as a creative fuel.
