Dance X Fase X Quad: Choreographic Seeing in Lucinda Childs, Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker, and Samuel Beckett

Minimalist lines often show up in philosophical and theoretical writings to diagram accounts of human perspective. But they also show up to do the opposite: to diagram the possibility of structures that precede or exceed a human perspective. By inhabiting scored lines as bodies in performance and simultaneously imagining what it is to score these lines from above, choreography can animate philosophical and theoretical approaches to perspective to reveal how multiple even minimal lines can become.
