Kuloflux is like a museum of transparent levels with invisible visitors. It is a reach for plateaus like rooms, which are hanging in the emptiness. It has an unknown language which tells its' own legend: there is a steppe without an end. Try to ride there and you are captured by spacephobia. Inside, outside, between. Body, space and sound.
Kuloflux is a duet for a dancer and a musician. Both are on stage producing sound and movement. The musician is working with an electro-pad, which contains a set sound material, which he is nevertheless free to variate and reorganize during the live performance situation. The choreography of the dancer is set within a certain movement path on stage among two blue boxes which identify the space.Inside the movement there is also a minute freedom for variation and changes in timing. Kuloflux was premiered 2005 at the TANZTAGE in Sophiensaele, Berlin.
