Multi-Instrumentalist, Technologist, Composer, Developer & Theorist, Manjunan Gnanaratnam, works as an Interdisciplinary Artist within all contexts of Modern, Post-Modern, Contemporary and Experimental Dance. With a career spanning 35+ years, he is considered one of the foremost thinkers on the relationship between Sound and Movement.....
As a Musician, I am only inspired by Complex Human Movement Structures. Modern, Post Modern, Contemporary and Experimental Dance (Western Movement Vocabulary) and its history of Multidisciplinary Complexities, Kinesthetic Ideologies, Collaborative Processes and Dialogs, and an environment of continued Avant-Garde thinkings and explorations, have long provided me a platform, incomparable to anything else, where my creativity and imagination can exist freely. -Manjunan Gnanaratnam, 2005.
