A new analysis shows that moving to music with others can be a powerful way to ease symptoms of depression. Unlike walking or yoga, dance engages the brain in a unique “neurochemical symphony,” blending physical activity with joy, connection, and self-expression. Here's why it helps and how to harness it, according to experts: https://on.natgeo.com/47WKONQ

Kris and Chris have packed up their gear and left. I'm getting ready to turn off the lights and shut the door behind me...

2 intensive weeks of researching together the use of AI tools in a creative context - experimenting with video, sound and text. 2 wonderful knowledge sharing sessions with animated discussions with the audience. Inspiring talks with our research advisors from Aarhus University. A lot of reflection, discussion, creation, exchange, and more and more and more 🤩
Yes, we're ready for the weekend... 😌

We are so grateful 🙏to everyone that has helped us make this happen: Aarhus Kommune, Performing Arts Platform, and of course Åbne Scene - Godsbanen , who curated us in their residency program.

A huge personal THANK YOU from me to our research advisors Søren Pold, Mads Rosendahl Thomsen and Malthe Erslev 🙏

And of course, to my partners in crime, Kris (composer Kristian Hverring) and Chris (video artist Christoffer Brekne) - can't wait to get together again for our next development period! 🙏❤❤

But first ☝... the weekend 😌
