Voice as a vessel of the collective unconscious

In this article – a combination of video and text – I source from the Judaica project laboratory session above to analyse the phenomenon of voice as a vessel in the context of the Grotowski lineage of theatre practice. Using phenomenology and autoethnography, I bring together the reflections from two performers–researchers improvising in the session: Ben Spatz and myself. The improvisation I refer to became prolific material for further scholarly and artistic work. Namely, it supported my process of formulating a notion of dreamvoice discussed in this article. Therefore, I use the reflections from this session as a springboard to analyse the performative, psychophysical and spiritual aspects of the voice becoming a vessel of personal and collective unconscious
