Object/visual theatremakers and puppeteers Lindai Boogerman and Martine van Ditzhuyzen will lead with me an exploration of objects and improvisation in November/December. With the subtle relationship in mind that a puppeteer/object-player can have with ‘stuff’/things/material, we want to know how we can use this for interdisciplinary instant composition. We would like to involve and ask not only puppet players, but more so musicians, dancers, actors, lighting/visual people,… to interact with material that accompanies them on stage.
22nd of November 2012 
6th of December 2012
13th of December 2012
Sessions (14:00-17:00) will be semi-open, meaning we would like to define the group of researchers beforehand. Preference is to people who can join all three sessions, but exceptions can be made. Just talk to us.
What are the Carpet Sessions? / Where is the studio? (click here)
We will post more detailed information end of October. But you can already write your comments below to state your interest in the subject or if you have a question.
greetings!

sorry for not responding earlier! Great that you would like to join, but we in first instance are looking for a group that can do all three dates… Let us keep it in consideration, I will meet Martine and Lindai soon and we’ll talk about it and then let you know.

I would like to join in. Sounds like interesting sessions!

Hi Thomas, Martine and Lindai,
interesting way of researching instant composition! I’m really curious. I like and practice both fields, so this seems my cup of tea! May I come in?
Angela
I’m in! 🙂
hi there,
Great subject, I would love to experiment more with the objects and materials that surround us on the stage.. I really want to join, but I am not available for the 2nd session on 6 december. Can you let me know if this is possible? I read that you prefer people to be there all three times.
Thnks, Marije
LOVE working with objects and as far as I know now I can make all 3 dates. 🙂 Suzan

Greetings Maaike
Sounds great! Ill join you!
hi Sandrina,
you can come to all three sessions? let us know, Thomas
Hi Thomas, I can be there all three sessions. And sorry for late response, hope there is still space for me to join. Performing in Turku right now, together with a puppeteer, so it would be really fun to have objects and puppet play in mind for a couple of more weeks this winter.
sounds great. joining in – so far it seems as i can make all three dates.
Tom
I’m curious about the connection object-voice. I’ll like to join. Amazone
