Lemniscaat

Lemniscaat was first performed in Bergen N.H. in 1983 in the hall of an old cinema that was not used anymore and which was knocked down in later years. Without any furniture or interior decoration and the wooden floor boards in full view the hall looked like a ballet studio. The screen that was still there was used for showing colour slides: eighty more or less stylised images of the manuscript of the score that was used by the musicians were shown.

The title Palimpsest derives from the Greek language and refers to a parchment scroll that after having been scratched clean or after having been made unreadable by making the original text invisible, is used once again. Many a time the original text remained more or less visible.
