Research Contribution	[Extract] “Performance 13: Touch” featured David Salisbury (sax and flute), and Erik Griswold (piano and melodica); Movement by Rebecca Forde and Bernadette Ashley who will move, dance and use one another for resistance as they draw with their feet on a 3m square of raw canvas with compressed charcoal. The dancers’ movement will be captured on canvas on the floor and projected; Visual artists Donna Maloney & Therese Duff painted at easels; Gail Mabo will created an indigenous interpretation.
Research Significance	This performance was based on spontaneous or free improvisation between the collaborators. Free improvisation or free music is improvised music without any rules beyond the logic or inclination of the musician(s) involved. The term can refer to both a technique (employed by any musician in any genre) and as a recognizable genre in its own right. Free improvisation, as a genre of music, developed in the U.S. and Europe in the mid to late 1960s, largely as an outgrowth of free jazz and modern classical music. The addition of visual artists, movement and projected imagery create a new dimension to this form. The improvisational aspect is in response to visual and aural stimulus.
