What’s Inside?

This Gathering is Centred around exploring principles and characteristic of adventure. how do we live adventure fully. Where can adventure nourish us in how we walk the world. And how does our understanding of adventure change when we add in a touch of playfulness.

This is an opportunity to explore adventure through the trees the water and the city of Budapest. allowing the practices of improvisation, combat, parkour dance and collective intelligence to be our guide.

Participants will explore affordances and dynamic relationships with a range of different environments, from city scapes, to wild nature.

We will switch between two modes of Experience:

  • Vertical - Where we offer a space to learn ideas, methods, and practices proposed by us.

  • Horizontal - Where we learn via collective intelligence, share embodied practice and emergent pedagogy.

The Approach

Participatory Action

Transformation through direct experience.

While allowing the material to be co-creational and emergent, we will also be basing the residency off principles inspired by Contact Improvisation, Contemporary Dance, Feldenkrais Method, Arboreal Locomotion, Parkour and Martial Arts.

Witnessing Observation

Learning by seeing.

Understanding the transformative power of quiet contemplation and witnessing. Time will be spent watching and observing what is happening as an approach to integration and deeper introspection on our collective pursuit for understanding.

Reflexive Discussion

Developing shared language.

We will take time to understand the processes we have uncovered by developing shared vocabulary to talk about phenomenological experience. This will also be time to understand how our currant disciplines can be embedded into non-human made contexts.

Collective Research

Cultivating Collective Intelligence.

CoCreated Research and developmental material. How we come together with a shared intention and no leader. Everyone establishing themselves as a generative figure to move towards something emergent and collective. A pillar of this residency.
