Moving On... "I thought your guidance and recordings were just amazing, so engaging, immersing and inspiring. Really brilliant. Yesterday and even still now, I felt I was breathing like I was a kid again. I want to feel that feeling some more." Daniel Van Alphen, participant at Moving On Composing with Climates ​ "Saddlers Wells in the park! Inclusive, restorative. Special. Thank you!" People encountering and joining Moving On Resonance ​ ​ Moving On serves to reconnect body to nature. Via a radio sound installation or via headphones, you can listen to somatic audio guides that were conceived by dance and sound artists to inspire ways of being with the more-than-human. Moving On is created by a community of artists for a community of people to breathe deeply and move freely with our surroundings and become part of a wider ecosystem where dances emerge as a state of aliveness and connectivity.

Moving On Sensing Skin Mountsfield Park, London 03 & 10 July 2022Meanwodd Valley Urban City Farm, Leeds ​ Artists: Alice Labant, Vanessa Grasse, Vanio Papadelli and Evert Taihuttu ​ Moving On Sensing Skin is an immersive experience that allows you to connect to nature via movement as they facilitate intricate tunings via our skin receptors, images and embodied connections. Together they open up pathways, that like windows, allow the light to filter through and gently mobilise you; inspiring summery dances and a deeply felt sense of togetherness. Moving On Rsonance creates a landscape of words and sounds that accompanies you as you wander, rest and experience how your body and relationship to the world changes by a deepened sense of presence to the space. It is a collective and communal event as we find ourselves sharing this experience. The sound magical rests in the canopy of trees and gently rises from the ground. Artists: Simon Roth, Sara Ruddock, Tania Soubry and Amy Voris A secluded area of woodland in South London set on the broad slopes of a deep railway cutting offers an immersive ambience of sounds and words to reconnect to nature for a renewed sense of navigating life through our senses and environment. In collaboration with the London Wildlife Trust. Artist: Laura Doehler, Anne-Gaelle Thiriot and Marina Collard Past headphone events This trailer we made with people from our community when we were still working with headphones. Giving voice and visibility to each experience it shows how the feeling of connection of body to land and how movement created a new alternative and way forward. "Moving On is a dance meet-up in the park. You are accompanied by professional dancers guiding you through a movement score. Rather than being the usual jumpy and poppy workout, Moving On is a meditative, introspective and vulnerable process. Wether you are deep into contemporary dance or not, it will be a novel experience of discoveries." ​ Florent Venet, participant of many Moving On projects during lockdown Since September 2020 we installed a regular outdoor movement practice with Moving On for dancers and non dancers alike. These are our past projects ​ ​ Moving On Remembering is a spacious audio by Laura Doehler that invites you to connect to body and space as a reminder of the very basics that we need to look after and connect to. It is an audio that acknowledges the transient nature, how all will go and new things come, where presence, the here and now, shouldn't be forgotten but celebrated.

Open Day For a whole day The Green shared what it offers – classes, meet ups, support schemes, drop ins, tea and coffee – for its local community to get a taste and to integrate development that comes directly from the community and is for the community. Exit Map's facilitation focussed on the wishes and dreams of lour local community and worked on producing an environment that connected and listened to what is going on in people’s lives. ​ As a community centre The Green wants to create social well being and so we ask you How are we well together? The program of tasters showed what is on offer on a regular basis but throughout the day there were conversations, games, food and interview stations, map making etc to find out who is who and for all to remember that people are worth meeting and that strangers can be become friends. ​ The entire event was free, grown from people who care: The Green, Exit Map, its teaching community and the community itself who provided food and helped out; people who care and want to connect.

Dance and sound artists of Moving On Together 8th and 15th of May, London New Cross Gate Cutting Nature Reserve Marina Collard: https://www.marina-collard.com/ Marina is an independent artist, performer and lecturer making multidisciplinary work involving live performance and video and more recently painting. Her work has been presented in theatres and galleries in the UK and abroad and is often made in collaboration with other artists. She is concerned with movement and physicality which reflect aspects of the human condition within the fragile and complex landscape of our world. These elements are aestheticised and paradoxically explored reframing the ordinariness of everyday life rendering the unspectacular visible. The work is painterly in its approach while maintaining a physicality informed by her career as a contemporary dance performer and maker. Marina is a lecturer at Trinity Laban Conservatoire for Music and Dance and teaches in professional and educational settings both nationally and internationally as well as a Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist since 2010. ​ Anne-Gaelle Thiriot https://www.exitmap.org/anne-gaelle-thiriot Anne-Gaëlle is an independent dance artist based in London and, since late 2020, in Marseille. She is interested in the potential of movement and architecture to create and bring communities together, and is hungry for bodies and non-hierarchical ways of working. These days she is creating work through investigating the notion of Public Intimacies (how to create intimate collective experiences in the public space, given the current climate), and ways to engage with, enliven and embody the archives of Contact Improvisation (namely the Contact Quarterly revues). She mainly works through collaborations. She is a certified choreologist (specialist of Laban-based contemporary theory and practice) and has been a guest lecturer for Trinity Laban, Roehampton and Winchester University and as dancer, teacher, facilitator and choreographer, she presently works with Andrew Graham (L’Autre Maison), Mathilde Monfreux, Compagnie Libertivore and Eric Minh Cuong Castaing, and also organises the project Le FIL: Training & Open Studio in Marseille, with fellow Julien Dégremont. ​ Laura Doehler https://www.exitmap.org/laura-doehler Laura choses improvisation and performance as the format to observe change and provide tools to integrate an embodiment that shapes social and environmental connectivity. She initiates collective processes via Exit Map that install a fluid and sensitive connectivity between self and other. Together with Exit Map she produces work and events that people can participate in and witness. The shedding of boundaries of self and other and the integration of performance and practice as part of everyday life are recurring themes. Projects are brought to life in close dialogue with other cross-disciplinary artists to further and inspire collective ownership. These are defined by processes and dialogues; the product being ourselves changing. Laura teaches contemporary dance, improvisation and CI in HE at NCCA and as guest lecturer at Trinity Laban and CSSD and independently across Europe. ​ Dan Nicholls developed an expansive and deeply entangled practice in the field of sound. Casting aside the dogma and seriousness of much artistic practice whilst embracing joy and improvisation in order to search for deeper narratives, Nicholls’ work finds depth and form through quick experimentation and distillation – layering, stretching and collaging sound, and diffracting materials from many places, sonic and otherwise. Dan’s event series and label Free Movements has become a place in which a growing community can join in emergent practices of dance, sound, visual art, speculative imagining and mutual care.

Archive Online https://movingon.neocities.org/ For you to explore how Shared Practice led to Openly Spaced Out and Moving ON Architectures of Togetherness A project initiated in Pondeosa, Germany, it continues to grow with our glocal community.

Archive of events and productions SHARED PRACTICE X TENSION ​ Shared Practice X Tension projects stem from the practice and tools we extricate from our weekly Shared Practice. Process led, artists share and unearth what moves them through a movement practice where conversations find a flow that open up more processes. We speak differently after we moved. ​ Instead of products we accumulate structures that invite participation to keep processing but gradually we invite more people in, gather more views and encourage creative contributions. We collectively develop ideas into projects, from artists into the community by mobilising exchanges and shared ownership. ​ Moving On 2020 - 2023 Lewisham, London based with satellite projects worldwide ​ A headphone or radio installation, Moving On are somatic audio guides conceived by dance and sound artists, to inspire ways of being with the more-than-human.

Dinner Of Doing Things Conceived by the community of Exit Map in various SE London homes. Spring 2023 The Dinner of Doing Things is an initiative to open our homes for others to visit us and help us with whatever we need help with. We de-privatize our needs and open a personal space for imperfections to be seen and, with the support of our community, find solutions. Alongside we grow and expand into a shared sense of identity. Zine - Architectures of Togetherness Exit Map Community with design by Carolina Vasilikou December 2022 - January 2023 ​ Following the research Radical Inclusion, we wanted to share our questions with the wider community what it would mean "to design space together, thinking in ways of movement? How can somatic practices conceive multiple architectures that are exuded from multiple bodies? " (C. Vasilikou) ​ Walk + Talk + Cake Green Community Centre and Nunhead Cemetery Aug 2022 ​ Our ingredients for joyous community events to connect people and spaces are: make a cake, bring old clothes for a clothes swap and then join us for a walk around Nunhead cemetery where the dead are graced with teeming wildlife. After, we eat cake, let go of old clothes, find a new old thing to take home and dance in the sun to music from our radios. Radical Inclusion Carolina Vasilikou and Laura Doehler Research Residency October 2021 in Ponderosa, Germany ​ To further Ponderosa's vision to connect with neighbours and put Ponderosa on the map with its ability to give life to the unimaginable (Utopia), we make space to accept what isn't that. Permeability of otherness, directions of flows and small openings that invite new connections. The Most Wuthering Height Day Ever 2021, Hilly Fields, London Held at locations around the world, people recreate the dance of the song "Wuthering Heights" by musician Kate Bush ( 1978).

Objects of Exit Map ​ Objects ​ Is to link professional development for dance artists based in SE London with events (collective and for the public) by providing space (for practice and creation) and dialogue. Exit Map advocates collectivity/ community for dance artists and the general public. The vision is for relationships to emerge and manifest based on our understanding and ongoing creative engagement with body and presence. Exit Map facilitates creative crossovers by inviting artists to work alongside and dialogue. Events are crafted for the general public, disseminating work that has received peer support, feedback and has to some extent collective ownership at its base. Content and structure of these collective events challenge collective creation and Exit Map’s role is that of safeguarding people and practice, to ensure content is in line with proposals and oversee management. Social support and resilience is the larger objective of Exit Map where artistic and social engagement drive progress by installing connectivity. Exit Map facilitates interaction and integration of self amongst/ in other (people and environment) for collective well being. It is a collaborative platform where body and movement are at the centre of attention to provide creative and alternative performance solutions to further a culture that embodies cultural, social and environmental values. Exit Map will provide different levels of engagement for artists and people. Starting from the least involvement to the most involved one Memberships (non-voting member) to access events such as Moving On or the Shared Practice on a discounted basis with information about on how to be involved more Artists - advising members are supported by the Shared Practice regarding their professional development and who are invited to contribute to events such as Moving On or Community events at the Green where their personal practice is integrated but also extended to include the collective curation of events. Exit Map directors Laura Doehler , managing director, Anne-Gaelle Thiriot and Tania Soubry have executive decision making rights that can be passed on to Committees such as the Advisory Board. Their work is to safe guard artists and objects of Exit Map and observe rights and responsibilities. Guest artists may join temporarily to contribute to events who share Exit Map’s objectives and vision and whose professional contribution not only furthers projects of Exit Map but professional development for artists that are regularly engaged Exit Map encourages all artists in collaboration with Exit Map to join the advisory board to collectively handle responsibilities and decision making that concern the structural set up of events and therefore integrates authorship and ownership deeper. Exit Map provides the frame for projects but it is artists that provide content. Together we approach democratic processes however in order to align artistic proposals with the overall objective of Exit Map, directors reserves the right to determine choices should disagreements ensue. ​ Exit Map is registered in Lewisham, London, UK Status Nonprofit, non charitable social enterprise, private company limited by guarantee, S60 exempt

Archive Dinner of Doing Things ​ ​ This project was jointly conceived by the Exit Map community who created the zine Architectures of Togetherness where processes consisted of sharing dinners and conversations about our connections to others and environment. It reflected on our day to day movements, existing initiatives, living spaces, needs, Covid, information speed and how the drawing of intentional and spatial boundaries impacts us. It inspired us to find ways to soften yet respect social and spatial boundaries that support the individual and simultaneously renew a sense of collectivity. ​ The Dinner of Doing Things is a format where a group of people gets organized to visit each other at home. Whoever is being visited shall articulate a need of theirs that the others offer help with. The need could address the home space directly such as gardening but could also be expanded to support any kind of need and may express itself in conversations, body work or project/ work support. The deal was sealed with food that we shared. The aim was to somehow de-privatize our home space by co-authoring it. To make ourselves feel more welcome or even just able to visit people who live nearby and share the outlook of wanting to do things together. And of course, get things done. To open your home however and invert our social imprint of presenting a perfect home, cleaning before guests come and preparing food to instead open doors and share what we need help with and welcome our guests delicious gifts, was not easy. It showed that there is a long way to go to arrive with each other the way we are and feel. Without preparing or altering our image, it revealed the intimacy hidden in admitting our own fragility that in the end nurtures our togetherness and brings us closer. ​ Would you like to try? ​ It continues when there is people who want to do the same. If you would like to be involved, let us know. info.exitmap@gmail.com ​ Many Thanks to all who joined: Dagmara Bilon, Alexandra Baybutt, Thomas Herzmark, Joanna Flannery and daughter, Will Lang, Karen McCarthy, Emi Silvas, Katie Dodthing, Mao Mao Ju, Ziquing

The Most Wuthering Day Ever Hilly Fields, London 2021 The Most Wuthering Heights Day Ever is an event held at locations around the world where participants recreate the music video for musician Kate Bush's 1978 song "Wuthering Heights". The event's inspiration is Shambush's The Ultimate Kate Bush Experience, which took place in 2013 in Brighton, as part of Brighton Fringe created by performance collective Shambush. Since then the event has been proposed across Europe, Asia, the Americas and Australia! ​ In 2021 just when the pandemic eased we facilitated it in Hilly Fields, London! ​ The income generated for this event went to fundraise Exit Map to be able to continue Moving On and to the local charity Hilly Fields who look after the planting of trees by getting the local community engaged to look after their local park. In fact two of the trees in Hilly Fields are there thanks to this event.

Invisible Festival from a community for a community Our Exit Map community of people and artists creates new and progressive ways of being together with others and our environment. The invisible festival offers the many skills we have as dance and performance artists, sound artists, story tellers, food mak ers, therapists and architects to create an experience for the wider London community to grow meaningful connections inside one of our urban natural environments. Why invisible? Joining this festival means joining a time out by not taking a phone inside. We offer a return to being in the world without distraction. We share ways of listening and attuning to what surrounds us to co-inhabit a space that is inclusive of all people and the more-than human. We experience the magic of loosing clock time to find flow and ease to alter or return to an intuitive togetherness. Once inside, you won't have to be at a certain time at a certain place. You will simply be and let sounds, movement and performances emerge. Without phone, photographs and uploads this festival will leave no material, proof or traces simultaneously or afterwards. This festival only exists there and then. Once past, there will only be memories to give space for new things yet again to emerge. If you want to join, you need to come. To be invisible beyond the actual event shows that truly seeing each other and being together emerges by attending, listening and attuning through our senses and bodies. As we spread our wings and become part of the world around us we return to the simple and deep magic of life itself. Our ambition is that when you leave you've grown as a person, grown as a community from and back into the place you inhabited there and then which too has grown with you.
