Ticktock: Building a Science/Dance Collaboration to Explore the Nature of Time

  • Stony Brook University 100 Nicolls Road Stony Brook, NY, 11794 United States (map)

We visit Stony Brook University to offer a seminar where we will discuss how an astrophysicist (Paul Sutter) collaborated with the artistic directors of SYREN Modern Dance (Kate St. Amand and Lynn Peterson) to create "Ticktock", a performance using narrative sections, Mozart, and movement to explore time. We will discuss how scientists and artists can work with each other and learn from each other, and tips on how to build collaborations across disciplines. We will conclude with a science/dance movement exercise for the audience to participate in.
