​​​ZOOMLAND - LIGHTS OUT is a research project on zoom due to the current Covid pandemic, leading to a Performance Lecture at Scenkonst Sörmland.
​
Starting like a choreographic circle during spring 2021,
5 choreographers from Israel and Sweden met over zoom each one bringing in a theme they wished to deepen and research around during the pandemic.
The themes covered deep listening and sound exploration from a physical and sensorial point of view, experimental anatomy, phantom fantasies and studies and reading circles with literature by Monique Witting
​
After the research period the artists met in the theater at Scenkonst Sörmland and developed a Performance Lecture during a one month long intuitive process.
Following intuitive choices the work grew into a sound based performance exploring digital intimacy and disconnection by moving through layers of sound, body and consciousness, though a concert of voices, video work, soundscapes and interactive movements - Zooming in and out together with the audience.
​
The choreographers were interested in the meeting point between artistic research, collective- and intuitive processes.​​
​
The Performance Lecture premiered at Scenkonst Sörmland 27th September 2021.
