motives

each movement in the gesture phrase can be seen as a motive >>> besides, every movement can be interpreted as different kinds of motives >>> for example, the gesture that derived from the word NORMAL i developed as two possible motives >>>

NORMAL. MOTIVE ONE >>>
i imagined a stretchy thread between my hands and improvised around this idea >>> the imaginary thread defines the connection between body parts >>>

NORMAL. MOTIVE TWO >>>
i took as a motive the rebound accent at the end of the movement >>> as in the body stretching in different directions until some limit and then rebounding back >>>

i developed motives for the gestures derived from the words I, CAN’T, BE, WITH, SOMEONE WHO, CRIES, OVER, RAPED, VIOLIN >>>

parallel to that, i developed VARIATIONS of the main gesture phrase >>>

once both tasks were complete, i proceeded to create a SCORE >>>
