Tiivistelmä

There are many ways to approach self-organizing or improvised choreography. In this artistic research the choreography is approached as a self-organizing system and investigated for the requirements that this kind of approach demands from the choreographic thinking and practice and the dancer’s work to make the self-organization happen. This commentary will go through the following key concepts from art, scientific thinking and philosophy: choreography and choreographer ; composition, assemblage and agencement ; emergence ; systems theory ; situation ; embodied mind ; improvisation ; choreographic knowledge. This commentary also contains thorough analysis of three performances and one workshop that were done during the years 2011-2017.
