Performance generating systems are systematic and task-based
dramaturgies that generate performance for or with an audience. In
dance, such systems differ in ways that matter from more closed
choreographed scores and more open forms of structured
improvisation. Dancers performing within these systems draw on
predefined and limited sources while working on specific tasks
within constraining rules. The generating components of the systems
provide boundaries that enable the performance to self-organize
into iteratively shifting patterns instead of becoming repetitive
or chaotic. This book identifies the generating components and
dynamics of these works and the kinds of dramaturgical agency they
enable. It explains how the systems of these creations affect the
perception, cognition and learning of dancers and why that is a
central part of how they work. It also examines how the combined
dramaturgical and psychological effects of the systems
performatively address individual and social conditions of trauma
that otherwise tend to remain unchangeable and negatively impact
the human capacity to learn, relate and adapt. The book provides
analytical frameworks and practical insights for those who wish to
study or apply performance generating systems in dance within the
fields of choreography and dance dramaturgy, dance education,
community dance or dance psychology. Featured cases offer unique
insight into systems created by Deborah Hay and Christopher House,
William Forsythe, Ame Henderson, Karen Kaeja and Lee Su-Feh.
