rile*, This Container, Monique Wittig (Collected Texts), P0$$€, Gloss, Translating the Bio-Text: a workshop, Moving Into Writing

Edited by Chloe Chignell, Maia Means and Stefan Govaart.
Designed by Chloe Chignell
2016- ongoing

This Container is an open host for texts and documents that come through and alongside choreographic thinking. It’s a recipe, but not for eating; a sequel to everything up until now; horizontal tourism; many feminists’ elegy; opinions weakened with time; an inaudible lesbian opera; a future ballet manifesto; dances and desires; cheating discipline; purposely misplaced; only poems; statements and speculations; a diagram for artistic research; and an incomplete encyclopaedia of random knowledge and dear dances. This Container takes shape according to its content, without organising through prominent narratives or figures, this container wants to weave, leaving holes and threads between the forms of writing.

It began in Stockholm, 2016.
