Rhythmic Trialogue

Noyale Colin, Florence Peake & JJ Wheeler

At the edge of perception, rhythm marks time. It cuts, flows or disrupts – and creates relationship. Using improvisational structures, two dance artists and a musician create a web of relations with each other, with spectators and with time and space.

Rhythmic trialogue

I am trying to organise my thoughts by the present attempt to articulate what I think I am doing with this project.

2. It is a collaboration between mediums and people
3. It is the preparation of a public presentation
