ANIMAL VIBES 
Dance and Community in Wyk, Island Föhr
16th August - 7.15pm- 9.30pm

&#60;img width="1587" height="2245" width_o="1587" height_o="2245" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/577feca80fc4c1295c4c502efd3fd07c53728f94572be432b3c8155f9d9efe9b/1.jpg" data-mid="236725943" border="0"  src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/577feca80fc4c1295c4c502efd3fd07c53728f94572be432b3c8155f9d9efe9b/1.jpg" /&#62;

 Connect with your freedom. 
Whether you love dancing or think you can't dance, everyone is welcome here! At Animal Vibes, we celebrate dance as an art form and a form of expression; pleasure, fun, and discovery are our priority.
The map of the 5 Rhythms® is our foundation. Sound as a landscape moves us through Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness®. We find our grounding, enter into expression, let go, become light and still. We connect with our animal powers, experience our bodies playfully, and enjoy dance as a journey to our sources of strength.
We, Chrissi (Yoga &#38;amp; Somatic) and Josefine (Dance &#38;amp; Choreography), look forward to accompanying you mindfully, playfully, and enthusiastically on this self-discovery.
To make the event as inclusive as possible, we have decided to offer admission by donation. We welcome everyone to join us for a small buffet after the dance, so we can end the evening together.
Dress code: Come as you feelCost: Pay what you can
Please note: Due to limited space, registration is required.

“A world is a future we can believe in. A world is an artificial, living thing. A world dreams up a place. A world has values. A world has one language. A world can grow. A world can collapse. A world has magical powers, especially the power to filter what matters. “

In Becoming Dinosaur Josefine Mühle explores in an intimate setting with her six months old son Rio, her partner and the costume designer and friend Justyna Gmitrzuk what it means to create and nourish a world from its early beginnings. Becoming dinosaur is transdisciplinary, ongoing research and is a futuristic container for growth and beauty that gives value to the human relationship to planet Earth. 

Accompanied by research on dinosaurs and made accessible to babies, the work opens up a strange yet tangible tension between planetary past and future scenarios. The first stage of the work (realised in Oct. 2023, DOCK 11 Studio 4) was dedicated to creating&#38;nbsp;the placefor the work. Together with Marcus Prinzen (light, camera, set) Justyna Gmitrzuk (costume and textile design), Rio Prinzen and Paul Fechner (baby performers) and myself (artistic direction, adult performer) we realised a spacial setup, with a textile volcano as prototype for the place. This volcano became the stage for 2 baby performers and one adult performer. In this first rehearsal face we created video material that will be edited into a video work.

The video series LOTUS explores the depths of human consciousness focussing on different perspectives on that issue.

LOTUS PORTALS INTO PURPLE touches upon Julian Jaynes controversial theses about the bicameral psyche. Jaynes argues that before the development of consciousness, humans perceived auditory memories or ideas hallucinatorily as clear inner voices and as commenting or commanding guides. The video work takes up this thesis and ventures into a pre-conscious, mystical realm populated by voices, visions and masks. The diversity of religious experience is broken down into a hypnotic film work. Aiming to be a medial ceremony, “LOTUS. Portals into Purple" for alternative forms of cross-species coming togther. Fiction becomes a prophet.

The LOTUS video series explores the depths of human consciousness focussing on different perspectives on that vast topic.

Informed by horror and science fiction scenarios LOTUS THE CHILD WAS STUNG imagines a intrauterin body that we no longer remember. This work investigates psychological and neurobiological studies on prenatal experience and fuses it with a cinematic stimmulation of the senses. The intrauterine body emerges as a sensual landscape of micro-dependencies. A cinematic collage of fragmented territories of fierce connection with what lies beyond the reach of adult perception.

Innocent, cute, dependent - the evening length piece BABY CHOIR throws socially accepted baby images overboard and is interested in the monstrosity of the baby archetype. The piece composes psychopoetic journeys decaying pleasures and sucking muscles. A space for tenderness and rotting, a dirty body surface and a shifting composite. 
BABY CHOIR provides a german audio description as integral part of the work. The audio description was developed within the working process.

A CHILD HAS BEEN BEATEN

dance performance

&#60;img width="1812" height="1166" width_o="1812" height_o="1166" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/da08aa964ba4cc0b8177fc6b023516a7700dfb12b4bfb55f0104e603522e1e6c/A-CHILD-HAS-BEEN-BEATEN-.jpg" data-mid="218083978" border="0"  src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/da08aa964ba4cc0b8177fc6b023516a7700dfb12b4bfb55f0104e603522e1e6c/A-CHILD-HAS-BEEN-BEATEN-.jpg" /&#62;



A CHILD HAS BEEN BEATEN is part of Kemppainen &#38;amp; Mühles broader research Visions of Masochism which takes space for the phenomena of masochism as a subversive force for action. The title of the piece references Siegmund Freud’s essay A Child is Being Beaten (1919) that is historically placed as a contribution to the study of the origin of sexual perversions. Through appropriating Freud’s writing the artists reclaim dominant male supremacy notions of masochism in approaching them beyond the binary of submission and dominance. They offer movements of desire by poking the heteronormative contract and finding a molecular level of sensitivities that could exist.

In the evening length piece two bodies accompany each other on an insistent and monstrous path in a shared space of becoming a body that has lost it´s function. A CHILD HAS BEEN BEATEN &#38;nbsp;identifies masochism as an autonomous phenomena and empowering agency. Based on their individual and shared desires, Kemppainen and Mühle zoom into the impact of normative structures in their personal histories offering a poesis of solitude and companionship. The viewers are invited to work with their responsibility as spectators, with matters of intimacy and dark joyous satisfactions.

Seagull Speaks is a work that combines performance, video and painting to a performative installation. It was presented in the frame of NO LIMITS FESTIVAL at Sophiensaele in November 2019. 





Seagull Speaks is a dystopian prophecy about the last human on earth. At the intersection of image, performance and video, different patterns of psyche in the age of the anthropocene emerge. A stuffed seagull becomes the main protagonist of the work pointing at the suppressed trauma of ecological crisis and debunking the human-centered gaze as one of myriad ways of looking at the world.

WHAT’S IN THE DARK /Strange Attractor&#38;nbsp;

solo performance





&#60;img width="2934" height="1704" width_o="2934" height_o="1704" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cc461368f3b12c03e6ae583607ed7ef85737f3e916417a9c8f5d12ca74198ce8/Screenshot-2024-09-14-at-14.50.51.png" data-mid="218060772" border="0"  src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cc461368f3b12c03e6ae583607ed7ef85737f3e916417a9c8f5d12ca74198ce8/Screenshot-2024-09-14-at-14.50.51.png" /&#62;
What's in the Dark is a process-oriented, multimedia solo performance series that I started developing&#38;nbsp; in winter 2017. It embraces the principle of vulnerability and accompanies the development and orientation of a fragile and amorphous body through various stages of its creation and presents it in different performative formats. 


&#60;img width="4928" height="3264" width_o="4928" height_o="3264" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/145394b1e8fe43dda6ad5d82e60d2c719c56154c62e9383e4763ed5d8ab8f582/S.o.S.-7.Stuck-4.jpg" data-mid="141145672" border="0"  src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/145394b1e8fe43dda6ad5d82e60d2c719c56154c62e9383e4763ed5d8ab8f582/S.o.S.-7.Stuck-4.jpg" /&#62;


The &#38;nbsp;body in What´s in the Dark &#38;nbsp;is characterized by a specific body language that is in continuous research and transformation and that tracks down and externalizes partially conscious and non-intentional movements and states. My movement research is influenced by somatic body and perception practices such as the Lichtenberger Method for applied voice physiology as well as fascia and imagination work. The movement research is closely intertwined with material that I generate as a parallel research, i.e. drawings and paintings, objects, texts, and videos that act as a mirror or friction for the movement material. These materials are used variably within the presentation format.

„ Auf dem Boden, ein dünnes durchsichtiges Plastikrechteck, das das Bett einer grünen Tintenpfütze ist, und wir, die Zuschauer*innen, um diese Landschaft herum. Den Auftakt machen die zwei Fernsehgeräte. Auf den Bildschirmen walzt die Animation einer amorphen Figur, ihre Farben und Umrisse variieren mit der Zeit. Josefine betritt den Raum. An ihren Armen, Händen und Gesicht sind Spuren von Farbe, und sie trägt ein gleichmäßig durchnässtes Shirt in der gleichen Farbe der Tinte, in die sie ihre Füße taucht. Die Pfütze gestaltet jetzt den Raum mit ihrem Sound und ihren neuen Formen um. Die Tinte scheint die Textur ihrer Bewegungen, die durch eine innere kontrahierende Kraft gekennzeichnet ist, zu füttern und zu manipulieren, wie eine Welle, die progressiv und unregelmäßig Josephines Füße, Oberkörper, Arme, Hände besetzt.“

The solo performance What´s in the Dark/Strange Attractor explores the diversity of non-intentional, internal movement in the body, such as heartbeat, breath, blood flow and craniosacral rhythm aswell as subconscious inner imagery. Viewers find themselves in a laboratory setting where the performer's bodily state becomes the transmitter of internal shifts. A video animation on three screens shows changing molecular structures that resemble X-rays and accompany the body visually.
