After this, the performers compare their dance with the way the people dance in the original video. The audience is then requested to ask the performers questions. The piece wa...
"2:13" is many things. First, it's the name of a film festival that call for artists to submit films of exactly 2 minutes 13 seconds.

The video "To Ludger Orlok" focuses on a work that I started to do in February 2007 when I became interested in the concept of "broadcast yourself" and how it was changing our way of conceiving video format. In those days I proposed my performance in duo with the German trumpet player Axel Dörner to Ludger Orlok, the artistic director of Tanzfabrik. Mr. Orlok asked for a video to see our work, but at that time we didn't have any video to send him. I decided then to focus more on the video that...
