Although the characters move according to a pattern (which defines the style or genre of the dance) there is nevertheless room for improvisation and unexpected occurences. This adds energy to the performance and brings the spectator in a flow-like state.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"column column-span-1 column-push-0 column-last\"><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>Music composer: Xavier Roberti<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>The same whimsical energy can be found in the music, which contains many surprising changes in tempo and intensity, while at the same time never moving too far away from the main motif.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<h3>Case 2: F =  m.a <\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"100%\" height=\"250\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2SmQI2naJSk?feature=player_embedded\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h5>&#8216;F = m.a&#8217; (2014) by Melanie Kellens and Anouck Vaessen<\/h5>\n<div class=\"column-grid column-grid-2\"><div class=\"column column-span-1 column-push-0 column-first\"><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>Filmmaker: Melanie Kellens<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>The visual dialogue between the characters, whereby both are teasing and triggering one another, is at the heart of all movement in this film.
