发明新的节日，是重新发现日常。《重新发明节日》系列的第一回“携带舞蹈”，通过网络公共招募九位年龄从19到58岁居住在上海的民众，艺术家围绕“什么动作可以代表节日？”，引导参与者以游戏的方式进行集体即兴创作。群舞灵感来自代表苗族的文化表达与社会展演的“反排木鼓舞”，舞蹈动作皆为日常劳作动作，由身体进行“具身化”的社会行为，同时也是一种通过动态肢体语言表达社会成员情感的艺术交流活动。这种舞蹈的运动模式为本次公共体验提供了框架，它和少数民族长久以来的自我组织、自我调节与适合自己的协商程序息息相关，它也使得记忆文化成为可能，从而可以建立一个社区的想象力。

来自德国柏林的OY音乐组合为这场即兴表演制作了音乐。我们聚集在一起，将艺术的体验、周遭环境的体验以及我们自身的体验全部连结起来，重新发现日常可贵之处，重新通过游戏的方式关照当代生活的“精神建构”。

Inventing newfestivals is rediscovering daily life. Nine people aged 19 to 58 living in Shanghai were recruited online for the project. The artist revolves around the question "What movement can represent the festival?" Participants were guided to improvise dances in a game style.The group dance is inspired by the "Fanpai Wood Drum Dance" ，which represents the cultural expression and socialperformance of the Miao people. The dance movements are all dailywork movements, but also an artistic communication activity that expresses the emotions of social members through dynamic body language.The movement pattern of this dance provides a framework for this public experience， which is closely related to theself-organization, self-regulation and negotiation process that ethnic minorities have long practiced, and it also makes possible the culture of memory, thereby building an imagination of community.

OY (a musicalgroup from Berlin) produced the music for this improvisation. We come together to connect the experience of art, the experience of our surroundings and the experience of ourselves, to rediscover the value of the everyday through play, and to re-care about the "spiritual construction" of contemporary life.
