The Intention




Inspired by ‘The Invention of Morel’, a novel by Adolfo Bioy Casares, 'The Intention' was a sold out two-night performance of dance, live music and video that created an extraordinary audio and visual feast exploring a world of disjointed presences; where the playback of a recording of events takes on a greater reality than the continued existence of its subjects.


The film above is one of four films created by Terry Braun specially for the live dance and music performances of 'The Intention' at Radialsystem V in Berlin. This film, The Fugitive's Journal, was made to be downloaded and viewed by the audience on their smart phones or tablets as they wait for the show to begin, or, indeed seen after the performance.

The other three films were mute and were installed in the bar, and the entrance to the theatre of the Radialsystem V building in Berlin, surrounding the audience as they entered and left the live performance space.
