One Minute Performance is a score-based performance composed by the echoing of a multiplicity of bodies and the ambience of the public space. The performance process is constituted by identifying the other, the milieu. How do you feel in reaction to the space we all share? That is the question which underlines this score project. The participants are invited to walk around in public spaces, e.g. a station, square, park, river… Each participant must have a timer. Then, the instruction for the performance follows three steps, conducted as a loop. 


The participants are asked to open their awareness to the space entirely. Then, transform the situated sensible feeling into body language for a one-minute performance. This one minute is not only the moment of communication with other participants and onlookers, but also the time to echo the public emotion from one person to another human and non-human actors.
