For close to 20 years, VIDAM has existed as a bi-weekly collective movement improvisation experiment. Curated sound textures and electronic compositions by DJ Brando, with occasional live music accompaniment, create an atmosphere for experimentation and play. Drawing from Contact Improvisation, dance, and composition, it is a space where shared attention and individual choice unfold together. What emerges feels less like a fixed form and more like an evolving practice shaped by presence, curiosity, and care.
There is minimal structure and a few implicit agreements, inviting each person to find their own way while staying in relationship with the room. Through focused witnessing, composition arises naturally, making room for a non-ordinary way of being together.
I am deeply grateful for this community and for the continuity that keeps bringing us back. As a parent with limited capacity, it means a great deal to have a space I can arrive to, trust, and continue discovering alongside others.
Special thanks to Jason Woofenden and to everyone who helps hold and shape this container.
