"Practices for sideways dances" is the term I've developed for movement and dramaturgical practices, and an aestho-political commitment, that decentres the autonomous, individuated subject. It names a way of working and dancing that moves agency sideways from any singular position, toward the relational, the distributed, the more-than-one. It is a concept, but more importantly a practice and a speculative gesture. Through scores and propositions I ask: is it possible to situate my subjectivity outside my own centrifugal core? What if the body does not end at the edges of the skin?
