Movement Poetics is one of the outcomes of the artistic research that I have been executing in the context of my studies in Master in Theatre Practices, ArtEZ, University of Arts (2018-2020). My research has revolved around the field of instant composition, the principles of it, the training of the practitioner into them and the composition of scores as a choreographic structure for instant composition performances.
Accordingly, this book is an attempt of encapsulating the process of my research through written, graphic scores, drawings and poems created during performance and studio practice. It is also an invitation to the reader to play, redefine, reflect, activate, mess these scores up, and recreate new ones. Aesthetics and the form of the book has been designed based on the research outcomes of my research (scattered pages/scores which can be travelled from hand to hand, hidden pages in envelopes, extented pages underlining the continuity of scores).
