Since 2019, they created four pieces: <em>EXERCICE DE STYLES #2<\/em> (2019), <em>perfect pitch<\/em> (2021), <em>GIMME A BREAK!!! <\/em>(2023) and <em>That\u2019s twisted<\/em> (2026, at FIT the same year) which premiered at Pavillon ADC (Geneva) in spring 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Their work explores the relationship between sound and choreography. They investigate themes such as bodies in crisis and living under capitalism, drawing inspiration from music criticism. Improvisation, spontaneous writing, sensoriality \u2014 with an emphasis on listening \u2014 and altered states of consciousness are key elements of their practice.<\/p>\n<p>In parallel with their personal projects, Baptiste is regularly performing as a DJ under the alias Glaire Waldork.
