Tampere Dance Current: Bunch of Scrumps Collective: Go Strange
Go Strange is a dance and drumming performance that is imagined, created and performed by Bunch of Scrumps Collective (Jacqueline Aylward, Maja Kalafatić and Jesse Ojajärvi). Go Strange explores the lived experiences of something that feels familiar and strange at the same time. It formed through practices of grounding, connecting to the sublime, belonging, accepting of the alien and producing home.
The performance uses movement, sound and intention to produce generators that offer gateways into altered states. It meets, familiarises and recycles these states. Throughout the work there is a play with expanded representations of human identities. The use of bodies, both human and object, attempts to slip between the everyday, the absurd and the otherworldly. The collective works both to hold individual perspective, skills and identities and also to collapse them into one being.
