With Kobakant in Berlin; November 5 - 7, 2015

Once we had made some scale models, we started experimenting with flexible carbon poles (from Quechua tents; thanks Reverso for this concept) to create the structure at full size. After building some different variations, we ended up with a tube-like structure, that could fold and deform in various ways. We decided that the textile tube (made from a smooth stretchy-in-all-directions fabric) would not be fixed to the bone structure, so that the structure could reshape in many ways. The only fixed points for the textile are at either end of the structure to the surroundings. This can be varied based on what possibilities there are in the performance space.
