Framework is of key importance to HI-RES, because it underlines the artificiality of the contemporary dance scene. Namely, it relates to contemporary dance as a practice which extends beyond life. Framework can clearly conceptualize the abyss, the gap, the distance between the body of life and the life of the dancing body on stage. These bodies cannot be reconnected without the pipelines and channels of the outside world. Based on the work of Gilles Deleuze, the body's capacity in HI-RES can be recapitulated as follows. First: we should introduce Deleuze's hypothesis in relation to Spinoza, namely: nobody knows what body is capable of; and secondly: together with Deleuze, pose the question: is contemporary dance capable of body representation?
