About

Thank you for visiting Sense Central.

Sense Central is a virtual curated portfolio of my practice research process 2019-2020. I have researched intimacy, sensuousness and interaction with audience. This is part of my Masters in Devised Theatre and Performance at Rose Bruford College.

The circumstances of Covid-19 pandemic became a big part of my research. I live in Berlin and study at Arthaus Berlin, a department at Rose Bruford College. Because of the pandemic I travelled to South of Norway in end of March where I spend the rest of my school year. In Norway I continued my research isolated in the forest.
But I was not the only person that was less in contact with other human beings. Almost everyone on the planet shared the same situation. This made it more important to explore performances with intimacy, sensuousness and interaction.

I have chosen to showcase materials from five performances created during the pandemic: 

Text about the performances.

Reflective text about the performances and materials with contextual research.

Questions I have asked myself through the process of a performance.

Performative writing; parts of manuscript, earlier stages of manuscript, imagine theatre, performative documentation writing and poetry. 

Video: finished products, documentation of performance, materials from earlier stage of a performance.
Audio: earlier stage of a performance.
Pictures: documentation from performances.


Love,
Sarah Kaurin Jonassen.
