This is a pea-sized gland located just above the middle of the brain. During the day, the pineal is inactive. When the sun goes down and darkness occurs, the pineal is \u201cturned on\u201d and begins to actively produce melatonin, which is released into the blood. As a result, melatonin levels in the blood rise sharply and you begin to feel less alert. Sleep becomes more inviting. Melatonin levels in the blood stay elevated for about 12 hours \u2013 all through the night \u2013 before the light of a new day, when they fall back to low.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Wandering the city from the evening, through the sunset, during the night and ending after sunrise, I will let the melatonin levels in my body inform my tempo, pace, rhythm and atmosphere.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n How can the electrified city affect the production of melatonin?<\/p>\n Where to search for darkness?<\/p>\n What is darkness in an urban context?<\/p>\n How can darkness become visible?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Guided by contexts of light and darkness, the wandering will produce a variation of images, tableaux vivants and movement sequences.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” background_animation=”none” css_animation=””][vc_column][vc_column_text][vc_separator type=’normal’ position=’center’ color=” border_style=” thickness=” up=” down=”]<\/p>\nDOCUMENTATION JUNE 15<\/strong><\/h2>\n
