  • Episode 8 - The moving body (part 2 of 3 parts)

    In this episode things, again, are a little different. I will ask you to actually move your body so go find a space where you can move and get ready to follow my voice.

  • Episode 6 - The focussed body (part 2 of 2 parts)

    In this episode, I continue my conversation with Katarina Jazbec and Angeliki Diakrousi about their collaboration on the short film You Can't Automate Me. This time we explore the ways in which Katarina and Angeliki guided the group of lashers through movements and awareness exercises, and we talk about the role of the cleaner of containers called Martin in the film. The body awareness exercises draw from the extreme focus the lashers have to develop in order to do their work and allow us to explore how focussed attention can be learned and practiced. Enjoy!

  • Episode 5 - The listening body (part 1 of 2 parts)

    In this episode, I spoke to Katarina Jazbec and Angeliki Diakrousi about their collaboration on the short film You Can't Automate Me. The film follows lashers working at the Rotterdam harbour and shows their bodies at work in this otherwise automated and highly dangerous environment. Inspired by images of the film and our conversations I propose ways of listening to your body and the space around you. The second part of the conversation will be released as episode 6 in about 2 weeks.

  • Episode 4 - The sensual body

    In this week's episode I talk to dancer, dance teacher and nurse Bess Kuil about Brazilian Zouk, teaching sensuality in dance classes and about West African dance.  I carry the theme of sensuality through in the body awareness exercises and allow myself to venture off into a thought experiment about gender. Enjoy!

  • Episode 3 - The capable body

    In the third episode of Quiet Bodies, I speak to Amy Tait Westwell about running, feeling safe and political strategies of the late 18th century. In the body awareness exercises, I get experimental this week playing with how changing the state of the body can change the way we feel. Enjoy!
