チョイ・カファイ 『存在の耐えられない暗黒』
Overview
Engineering the ghost of Butoh at the intersection of technology and spirituality
With a wide range of free-ranging activities such as film, theater and performance, Choi Kaffy has deep reverence and attention to the expression of dance in any of the works performed by participating in KYOTO EXPERIMENT twice in the past Research, and has shown its own approach. "Notion: Dance Fiction" which restored the choreographies of legends in the history of dance while "misusing" some kind of technology. A project "Soft Machine" that has researched contemporary dancers based in Asia and accumulated many variations.
Choi Kaffy has spent a long time traveling around the vertical axis of the history of individual dancers and the horizontal axis of Asia that can not be unified. That he offered the appearance in "The Unbearable Darkness of the Existence" was the late founder Hijikata (1928-86) who is the founder of Dark Dance. Several measures were taken to interact with the deceased person Hijikata. Visit Itako up to Mt. Osori, add Hijikata spirit, or generate Hijikata avatar from the leftover material.
Can we live in the present and formless spirits be able to dance together with the power of the old-fashioned media?
