Reciprocal affectation
Andrew Wass und Jenny Döll
Reciprocal affectation is a spontaneously composed duet that investigates issues of power, freedom and responsibility. By focusing their embodied investigation to the location of touch, the dancers discover the compositional limitations in the moment and simultaneously investigate the freedom within those limitations. The intentional use of a minimal aesthetic and raw physicality offers the possibility to layer the own stories, fantasies and fiction onto the dance. The material of the piece is composed on the spot, emerging from a sense of urgency, a need for immediacy and directness, yet subtle listening to each other's voices. Each performer is engaged in their own personal research of physicality of sound and movement. In the meeting the five performers are passionately striving to give form to the ever fleeting moment, delving deep into the relationship of dance and music.

Leave the keys and go
Gali Kinkulkin
As a based in Berlin artist of mixed Russian-Israeli background, I often deal with questions regarding my identity and the effect it has on my responsibility towards political and social processes around the world. How does my cultural identity influence the way I see and react to the world and when does it translate into action? By using continuous and exhausting movements which evoke feelings of discomfort, I question how can one use the body, which contains infinitive amount of information, in order to explore the complexity of cultural and self identities. Is there a complex identity, one that allows a neutral and objective view of the world.
Intime Fremde
Chiara Rossini / Welcome Project
When I was a child my mother used to tell me, that I am a citizen of the world. Of course I believed her, she was my mother. But the older I got the more I understood that this is only my mother's dream. Borders exist - for somebody more, for the luckiest less. Their lines and rules sometimes change, but they do exist.

Sit down beside my imagination
Jasminka Stenz
»Sit down beside my imagination« is a dance performance that concentrates on momental happening in its space and architecture. It is a constant composition that researches the intimate moment and wonders about what I can tell and what I should better leave in my bathroom. There might be visuals, sound design, fashion design and other. There might be just me without something else. Maybe not even me. Maybe its all about you anyway.
HD
Emily Ranford
HD is a multifaceted solo exploring architecture, emotionality and theatricality in relation to choreography and the abstract nature of the body. Traditional and popular aesthetics shape the moving body, treating it sculpturally. Images of theatre, tropical paradise and death treat the body as a sculptural form. Emotionality stored within the body is amplified through holographic fractures of choreogragraphy. Without narrative, specific tasks build tension and drama in the space. Generated through delicate, raw, gestural and practical; interaction lies in the layers.
Zug-Zug-Züge
Hikaru Inagawa / 4Rude
This is a short Butoh piece. The notation is words.The words are visualized, and it is embodied through a dancer. The skin becomes thin and clear. And you can look in the other side of the skin. The man looking pale stands there and holds a glass of milk in the right hand. Milk is stained with some blood. Because the rim of the glass is too sharp and he cannot drink it. In such a strange state, he waits for a train in front of a white building. This is such a story.
Raben
Roesi
Raben sind Vögel, menschlichen Eigenschaften. Mythologisch treten sie oft als Begleiter, Boten und ambivalente Wesen auf. Sie tragen viele Seelen in sich, sind Grenzgänger zwischen den Welten. In dieser Performance verirren sich Körper und Klänge in Bilder, Subjekte, Objekte - in zeitlose Momenten der Hoffnung, Erkenntnis und Entfremdung. Die Körper und Klänge dienen als Projektionsflächen für Assoziationen, Wünsche, Sehnsüchte und Hoffnungen der Zuschauer und laden ein, vermeintliche Abgründe und Stillstände genauerer Betrachtung zu unterziehen. Das Stück Raben hinterfragt binäre Bewertungsmuster und zeigt Bilder von gefangen und festgefahrenen Zuständen und deren Transformation.
Currents
Rachell Clark
My artistic research focuses on pop, icons and the imagined. The work I will present at Possible Memories 15 | 2 is a continuation of the research that created ‘By Me Stand’, my work presented in the last festival. This new solo ‘Currents’ is a section from a larger work titled ‘Kill Your Heros’. The solo brings together different situations that form snapshots into imagined worlds and playfully brings my improvisation practice into a performative setting.
Connecting Fingers
Daniela Lucato
Eine Begegnung mit Geflüchteten.Wie wäre es wohl wenn wir einen Tag lang, für eine Stunde, für eine Minute die Dinge aus ihrer Sicht betrachten würden und hören könnten was sie uns mitzuteilen haben? Während wir versuchen uns in ihre Geschichten einzufühlen, entführen uns Tänzer auf eine weitere Reise.
Es war kein böser
Iphigenia Vogiatzaki und Marina Epp / Butoh Labor Berlin
»Er war kein böser« erzählt von der Dualität des Lebens. In einem Raum ohne Zeit erscheinen zwei Gegensätze. Unsichtbar miteinander verbunden spielen sie den Widerspruch der Einheit. Das eine kann nicht ohne das andere. Nur gemeinsam sind sie weder gut noch böse. Es war kein böser tells about the duality of life. In an area without time two opposites appear. Invisible interconnected they play the contradiction of unity. The one can not exist without the other. Only together they are neither good nor evil.
Meine Gegenwart ist die Vergangenheit eines anderen
Barbara Toraldo and Mauro Marzo / We left the ground
To those whoo can perceive it, the present is created by someone else’s past, whereas sometimes, this someone is your own self. The spaces around and inside become simultaneously old and new, crossing over the dimensions of time. Through instant composition of dance and sound we initiate a memory game. We’ll divide space into places leading us to discoveries of recollections. Once these are exposed their transformation is inevitable, varying intensity of physical, emotional and empathic responses.
We left the ground
Mauro Marzo aka MONOWATT and the dancer Barbara Toraldo
Since their first encounter in 2008 they have created and presented various performances in Italy and Germany. Their approach to composition is strongly influenced by the interaction between each other, the spatial context and the people attending.
In out & Between / work in progress
Stefania Petracca
This is an idea and an investigation of movement linked to spatiality, emotions, events, relationships, music vibrations, where all these elements make the underground-form and the substrat throught that i move the body, in the dance and in the life. It comes from an idea of what we consider IN and what OUT or BETWEEN. What is the meaning, in a dialetics reference, of IN? Does it mean COOL? Or SAFE? And OUT is its contrary? What is BETWEEN? Does it mean to fluctuate? Or to be indecisive?
