i really like the section from about 40 seconds to 1.15. I like the difference and the combination of the 2 perspectives.
It is interesting how we automatically started looking at dance pieces, had not even considered Woyzeck in that way.
I am still thinking about woyzeck as a individual in comparison to everyone else. He seems very alone and frustrated.
what i got from the movement class today is the power a group of people can have in performance, and the contrasts between
moving in unity willingly and unwillingly.

this is what i told charlie about when we were talking about dance and how shunt had really choreographed all there movement and timing of slamming doors etc.
there's not a huge link to woyzeck but the start they are looking through windows and in woyzeck he seems to look through windows a lot. like when he sees maria dancing with the drum major (if you have that in your versions) and when maria is looking out the window, but anyway what i am getting at is DIFFERENT VIEWPOINTS! audience looking in on the action through a window. i think kate said it was called voyeurism (well done kate). strange fish is just interesting/another thing they did i just added it in, also if you want to look at the other things they have on youtube, most are interesting, one seems to involve a crazy guy, you have to stick it out but it ends with a lot of jumping and his need to love. its quite clever.
