I translated choreography into diagrams and put them on the streets in Berlin. By doing this, I want to trigger changes in people’s gait, gesture, and movement; and in the meantime, to explore the answers of a question: what are the possibilities and impossibilities of translation? Nevertheless, translation is possible and impossible at the same time. If the “translatability” of the text is possible because of the intimate relationship between all languages, its impossibility lies in the difficulty to disclose that relationship. Movement is temporal.  It disappears as it is performed.  It only takes place at the moment in real-time with real people who bring themselves to the movement. Anywhere can be a stage, everyone is a dancer. Bauhaus Performance has been mostly treated as a minor historical footnote, while it actually, as I’ll argue, deserves to be more fully examined in the context of the twenty-first century; it reveals the surreal, sensual, irrational, and instinctive spirit of Bauhaus.
