Description
Everyone in Auroville is invited to come together to organize a team of artists, technicians, administrators and helpers to design and implement performances to be offered during the birthday week. Participants will learn new tools like Non-violent Communication and online collaboration tools for a decentralized organization allowing maximum creativity and manifestation with ease and fun in the process. Complementary economic tools will be experimented with to support the organization and the whole process will be video documented.
What is envisioned to celebrate our 40th Birthday event is an evening of many different artists and skills weaved together as threads in a seamless show performed on the outdoor stage of the Town Hall Plaza in front of the City Centre Café. The multidisciplinary, multimedia event will feature Dancers, Musicians, Singers, Storytellers, Actors and Mime artists as well as numeric painters, sculptors, designers, photographers and videographers.
Dancers and actors will improvise to the music and songs of live performing musicians and singers, while LCD projectors will project background videos or real time paintings projected on and around the performers. In order for such an event to take shape in the form of a “happening” rather than a set performance, artists who can improvise and can be flexible in a variety of surroundings and willing and able to work with other performers, will be essential. The whole show will be woven around the theme of “Human Unity” allowing freedom of as many genres and styles from all around the world to flow in a musical frame, is an interesting message Auroville can aspire to radiate for it’s 40th birthday.
