As part of "Lange Nacht der Museen"

The piece explores the echoes of loud, sudden movements: an impact that reverberates through the body before the conscious mind comprehends it, a noise that startles; a glance that catches you unexpectedly and abruptly brings you into the present. What do such shocks mean for our bodies? What is abruptly ended in such an interruption? What continues unnoticed and what is reconstituted in that moment?
In reduced images, the choreographers make the energetic processes of reverberation visible—the delayed, sometimes inadequate reactions to what we find difficult to ignore, integrate, or classify. They play with their sequence and rearrange them.

The echo of these shocking turning points reappears elsewhere, becomes a revenant, loses itself in the haunting, appears in other forms, and becomes a new event in itself. The piece thus becomes a laboratory in which fear is transformed into energy instead of shock-induced paralysis, and an imaginative approach to destructive power is explored.
