For the second edition of the Meet the Choreographer project, Annika Pannitto proposes an immersion into the practice of William Forsythe, drawing from the vast amount of documentary material produced by the choreographer and reworking it into accessible content for young dancers.

In particular, Improvisation Technologies (The Lecture) offers effective tools for working on the body in relation to space and movement analysis. This serves as the foundation for a workshop designed to generate short choreographic sequences, which will culminate in a final performance.

The primary reference is One Flat Thing, Reproduced, an iconic work where predetermined materials and improvisation structures coexist, allowing participants to create and interact in real time.
