This masterclass will be an exploration of identity by description. We pose ourselves the question: how does describing something or someone affect our own identity? How does describing invoke speech, sound and movement? How does a description become a bridge for communication, a two-way connection, a collective awareness of the physical presence? The methods and tools used during the masterclass are based on the ArtInAD research project, in which Max Greyson developed different ways to artistically integrate audio description for dance and theatre.
