Fred Moten and Wu Tsang are one of four commissions by If I Can’t Dance to produce a Performance in Residence research project as part of Edition VI – Event and Duration (2015–2016).
Their project, Gravitational Feel, is a sculptural performance that continues Moten and Tsang’s ongoing collaboration on the poetics of intimacy. Using fabric and sound to produce a series of “chance events”, Gravitational Feel will be an experiment in blur in which the social and physical significance of touch and voice, of space and time in matter, will open and maintain the mystery of who we are and what we know. This project will culminate in a book published by If I Can’t Dance.
