<Proximity> magazine is a print (and quasi online) journal that is produced three times a year in Melbourne, Australia and sent around the world. It is devoted to new dance/movement and improvisation practise. It has a focus on Contact Improvisation, movement improvisation and other related forms.
<Proximity> is a tool and a resource for those who choose to use it. We hope to encourage polemic and debate within the field of movement/dance and improvisation. We also hope to offer an opportunity for people to articulate their practise/investigations and share their knowledge.
There have been many interviews undertaken and transcribed for the magazine. Due to the constraints of time and surface area these interviews are often truncated. This podcast is an attempt to provide more complete and less edited versions of the printed material. We also hope to see this grow and have people contribute interviews from around the world.
<Proximity> has always been about sharing knowledge by providing a forum for those who write… perhaps this podcast will expand the pool of information to include those who find speaking to be more effective.
