Taly & Cie invited Max Diakok, choreographer of the contemporary dance company BOUKOUSSOU. First of all, a spelling correction of Creole, we write bokantaj and not bocataj! We offered #gwoka #dance workshops for the 2021-22 season and Max Diakok comes, as a highlight to this transmission, to transmit the LÉWÒZ Indéstwas rhythm, The Léwòz Indéstwas rhythm is a #warrior rhythm, using walking and imbalance in a constant game of exchange with the Mawkè (marker, the one who accompanies the dance), Here Max Diakok dances in a traditional way with a cane. The Mawkè and singer is our second guest; Emmanuel RÉVeillÉ, known as #BILOUTE. He is supported here by Jocelyn GLANDOR and FREDACH, two figures of the Bordeaux GWOKA #bordeauxmaville It is each time intense moments, a long-term, subtle apprenticeship, in musical listening and body technique that this #culture of #improvisation of #dance offers us, coded and yet very free, offering a space for extremely rich exchanges between the dancer, the dancer and the tanbouyé. Still little known in metropolitan France, GWOKA has nevertheless entered the intangible cultural heritage at #unesco https://ich.unesco.org/fr/RL/le-gwoka... Max Diakok, holder of this age-old knowledge, has been offering creative and research work around and with this heritage for several decades. His company tours internationally, with which he shares his vision of the world and of contemporary as well as traditional Gwoka. https://compagnie-boukousou.fr/ ********************************** The place of the chacha: 00:43 Biloute singing and musicians: 01:24 Transmission: 02:20 Entering the Round: 02:49 Max Diakok dancer: 03:14 ********************************* The continuation of our journey to discover GWOKA culture Series of 5 courses over the season.
