Tender Motor
In the current research project "Tender motor" repetition and mutation are explored as methods to search, cross and disrupt binary expressions. Through practices and influences such as acousmatic voice, metal choreographies, the machine/engine, creaturely voice and femininely connoted expressions, voices and bodies that can challenge the idea of "human" expression in a different/more-than-human landscape are explored. "Motor" comes from the Latin "movere" which means "to move" - the one or that which sets something in motion. In the project, the relay is explored as a structure to unite and replace each other, which can also be compared to an engine, or machine. The research is based on examining and following the mutations, figures and vocal bodies that arise through time, space, sound and movement from an audiovisual horizon.
