The performance Alone in the multitude is a performance that involves a direct relationship between the performer Salvo Lombardo and one spectator at a time, through an action lasting five minutes and replicable in a loop. The work was born as a “negative” or as a one to one variation of the Outdoor dance floor performance which reinterprets the aesthetics and social dynamics of clubbing by transferring them to spaces not intended for dancing, through a form of public participation that results in a DJ set. With this cycle of works the Sicilian choreographer continues his research into club culture, started with the stage work Present Continuous which already identified in clubbing a dimension of the “possible” that oscillates between collective practices and solitary pleasure, through which to transcend social conventions and gender. Alone in the multitude is based on a series of imitable sequences transmitted in real time by a voice in headphones and which are intertwined with a short choreographic score performed by Salvo Lombardo linked to the sonic pulsation of a techno beat with synth pop inserts . The performance simply presents itself as an opportunity for proximity and rapprochement between two bodies beyond the comfort zone of “solitude” and contemplation.
