"Musikalisch beweges Wissen erforschen - Explorationen zwischen künstlerischer Praxis und Theoriebildung"

My presentation will focus on a variety of possibilities for the artistic-creative design of interactions between music and movement/dance as well as approaches to their analysis. I will first concentrate on movement for music and music for movement, then on music in movement and movement in music and finally on music as movement and movement as music. The aim is to outline aspects of the education and fields of application of the subject area of rhythm/music and movement, artistic practices and their (practice-based/practical) research, as well as starting points for theory formation (which opens up practice). In order to illustrate the relationship between these different sub-areas and their direct interaction, I have designed an "Eye of Rhythm", which I would also like to present and, above all, put up for discussion.
