In this interview, they talk with Prof. Dr. Ute Fendler, Deputy Spokesperson of the Cluster, about sounds and movements.\nLuis Sala is a choreographer and dancer from Maputo where he runs a dance school. His 25-year long career includes a 10-year stint with the renowned National Dance Company of Mozambique. He collaborated on various projects in the Bayreuth Academy of Advanced African Studies on Iconographies. Together with Ute Fendler and Ivan Barros (photographer, filmmaker), he created a video clip and dance performance capturing the polyrhythmic nature of the Indian Ocean.\nTao Ravao is a musician based in France, playing Valiha, guitar and mandolin. Born in Madagascar, Ravao had always been fascinated by the music of the big island and the multi-instrumentalist took up playing the kabosy in the 1980s which took him around the world (Canada, the United States, Japan, East Africa). His love for Malagasy music led Tao Ravao to become the artistic director and producer of albums by the great D'Gary and Jean Emilien, Senge and Rajery. He has also produced the albums of Ba Cissoko and Sékou Diabaté of Bembeya Jazz. In 2016 he collaborated with Luis Sala on the project “Body and Sound”." ; dcterms:isPartOf ; dcterms:date "2023-02-13"^^xsd:date ; dcterms:language ; fabio:hasURL ; schema:isPartOf ; schema:associatedMedia ; foaf:isPrimaryTopicOf . dcterms:modified "2026-10-15T14:20:27Z"^^xsd:dateTime . foaf:primaryTopic ; void:inDataset ; dcterms:modified "2026-10-15T14:20:27Z"^^xsd:dateTime ; dcterms:license .
