Description Motus Collective are exploring ideas of regeneration, identity and change, based on the philosophical problem of the Ship of Theseus. The Ship of Theseus asks the question: If a ship gradually has each of its original parts replaced with new ones, at what point in the process does it cease to be the original ship? Does it ever cease to be the original ship? What defines it as itself? Drawing on choreography and experimental sound, Motus Collective will explore these themes through the development of their new dance work Old Body, New Management, in collaboration with composer and experimental musician Matthew Timmis and his movement-based sound technology.
