OVERALL ARC
The laboratory develops approximately through:
- establishing collective communication and refusal;
- moving from NO toward YES;
- reopening relations with objects;
- translating object qualities into movement;
- examining repetition and collective transformation;
- introducing consent and relational ethics;
- composing with objects;
- examining agency and negotiation;
- working with cards, questions and interpretation;
- returning to consent through serving and accepting;
- embodying internal tension through Dancing the Creature;
- presenting selected practices in an Open Class.
RECURRING WORKSHOP DEVICES
Across the six days, the protocol repeatedly uses intention setting, collective check-in, sign language, transition space, shared clapping, movement practice, observation, witnessing, discussion, writing, object exploration and collective choice.
The workshop structure itself remained negotiable.
Participants were sometimes invited to influence timing, order, practice selection, transition rituals and collective decisions.
