Afterlaughter 15, 5 min
a bodily experience of force and relief
The female performer takes the viewer on a journey through the captivating world of laughter. She moves between different states and landscapes of laughter. Creating a relationship between her laughter and herself. The reasons for her laughing are not evident which gives an openness and a heightened focus on the physicality of laughter. Gently dissecting and decomposing laughter into its different qualities. Looking at laughter as a nature force, and not as a tool of communication, allows zooming in on the functions of laughter on the laughing body.
Laughter is filled with beauty, ambiguity and power when taking a closer and more detailed look. AFTERLAUGHTER allows the unseen details to get visible and connects to the irresistible and balancing powers of laughter. An invitation to dive into a condensed bodily experience of force and relief.

The Meatlump app. 15 min
The Meatlump depicts a grotesque, raw and vulnerable fusion of three bodies. We follow the evolution from single celled organisms to complex, absurd body pile. The three bodies compete with each other and fight for space, but are, at the same time, deeply dependent on each other.
Together they build beautiful body machines and towers that reach for the sky. But behind every caring touch lurks an insatiable hunger. The Meatlump explores our intense urge for intimacy and touch and the relationship between our loving and destructive impulses.
THE TEAM BEHIND
Choreographers and dancers – Julie Rasmussen + Maren Fidje Bjørneseth + Richard Fredborg in collaboration with filmmaker Morten Arnfred and actor and musician Daniel Nicholson.
