PERFECT NOISE is a transdisciplinary performance with dance, music and poetry, initiated by Jonathan Nagel.
How can I create trust?
How can I be very close without intruding?
How can I be just merely I?
It started with the question, why nowadays everything in the arts, but as well in society and politics, tends towards extremes - needs to be violent, loud, intrusive and brutal. Does this originate in the fear, that we would otherwise remain unheard, get lost in the shuffle? Is it actually easier to use extremes than to create something subtle and beautiful? How can something be beautiful without being kitsch or cliché? How can I make an offering without imposition?
This performance is an attempt to stage a gradual progression, from extreme gestures and sounds, to the point of a truth which lies beyond those, in a realm of balance, peace and awareness. Each movement, each noise gets reduced to its essence, to just the right amount, to be just what it actually should express. A world of the many gets reduced to the few, to what really counts and matters. Eventually it is about finding out, what honesty, care and closeness really mean.
