Soundpainting
from technique to practice
Soundpainting – What is it? It is like a sign language that allows musicians, dancers and actors to compose a group, an orchestra where each one intervenes with what he/she can do. A master of ceremonies transmits to each person the set of signs that allow them to follow the instantaneous composition and try to become a conductor in their turn.
No prerequisites, no age limit (from 7 years old), we just ask you to be in a good mood and have a good dose of curiosity.
Pedagogical interests
- Development of group play (listening, interaction, artistic involvement) with the idea of creating a public performance at the end of workshops.
- Discovery of a new and universal sign language that develops the personal creativity of the performers through improvisation.
- Learning to direct (as a soundpainter) a multidisciplinary ensemble (music, theater and dance).
