本次 2026 年鬧工作室駐村實驗計畫進駐者-表演藝術家 亞森·瓦西列夫(Yasen Vasilev),將於進駐期間邀請大眾參與《THE MANY-HEADED BODY》計畫延伸的肢體動態工作坊。

✦ 計畫說明
這是一項長期的身體動態研究計劃,結合工作坊、創作實驗與表演呈現,目的在於實作「集體能動性」、感知的擴展,和將眾人的身體同步後成為一個超越人類定義的單一有機體。

在舞蹈構作與動作研究間,探索「觸碰」如何成為引導集體行動的介質,以及如何在參與者的身體之間重新分配能動性。計畫靈感源自「多頭絨泡菌」,一種沒有中樞神經系統或大腦,卻能做出決策並擁有記憶的單細胞生物。在這過程中,身體動態並不屬於任何獨立表演者的個人意志,反而是在擁有各異動作編排的身體間相互觸碰湧現。

✦ 藝術家介紹
亞森·瓦西列夫(Yasen Vasilev) 是一位以布魯塞爾為根基,活躍於當代舞蹈與表演領域,專長為舞蹈構作、評論寫作與藝術研究的藝術家。他是《Springback》雜誌的常約撰稿人。他的長期計畫《IMPOSSIBLE ACTIONS》首次被概念化於 2019 年台北國際藝術村。自 2025 年起,他擔任布魯塞爾「Bâtard Brussels」的新任藝術統籌者,該平台致力於支持新興與實驗性實踐,並每年於 Beursschouwburg 藝術中心舉辦藝術節。

✦ WHAT
At the intersection of dance dramaturgy and movement research, THE MANY-HEADED BODY explores the potential of touch to be conductive to collective action and the redistribution of agency between the bodies of participants. Informed by the many-headed slime, a unicellular organism without a central nervous system or a brain, which can take decisions and remember, the movement doesn‘t belong to the individual will of any separate performer but emerges from the space of touch between the bodies that has its own internal dramaturgy.

✦ WHO
Yasen Vasilev works in the field of contemporary dance and performance with dance dramaturgy, critical writing and artistic research from a base in Brussels. He is a regular contributor for Springback magazine, his long-term project IMPOSSIBLE ACTIONS was first conceptualized in Taipei artist village in 2019, and since 2025 he’s the new artistic coordinator of Bâtard Brussels, a platform for emerging and experimental practices that organizes an annual festival at Beursschouwburg.

✦ HOW
Over the course of max. six sessions, Yasen will hold movement research sessions with local participants (professional dancers, performance artists, and who is interested with no professional background and experience).

➡️Capacity: Minimum of 2 participants, with a maximum capacity of 10 people.
➡️Introduction workshop dates: July 18th, 19th (11:30am to 2:30pm)
➡️Follow up sessions (TBC): July 23rd, 24th (10am to 1pm) Aug 1st, Aug 8th (11:30am to 2:30pm)
