IN TOW TV

IN TOW TV is an experimental web series based on the interdisciplinary processes and conceptual explorations of the in tow project.

Edited and conceived by Jennifer Monson and Valerie Oliveiro, with support from the in tow team, Season 1 is comprised of fifteen 1- 5 minute episodes released every other day over the next month.

Each episode was made from a score devised from movement-based material that was created in the creative research of in tow. The material for Season Fifteen includes footage from a residency at MANCC in December 2015. This project is inspired by Robert Rauschenberg’s piece Linoleum, which aired on public television in 1966.
