O presente texto coloca em diálogo os processos de ensino-aprendizagem com os processos de criação coregráfica em contextos educativos. No quadro teórico, estabeleceu-se um diálogo entre aspetos construtivistas da educação enunciados por Bruner e Vygotsky com o espetro didático-democrático proposto por Butterworth no campo da criação coreográfica. Importa entender como a Cultura faz parte da Educação e como a Colaboração pode ser um aspeto fundamental na criação artística em contexto educativo. Neste processo de equilíbrio, surgem duas forças personificadas pelos agentes professor-aluno e coreógrafo-intérprete. E é, na multiplicidade das suas formas e composições, que reside o núcleo deste texto.

This text is a reflection in action of an artistic process based on a scientific research. ENSAIO is the choreographic project that resulted from the translation mechanisms of laboratory concepts to a bodily approach, where it proposes a possible mainstreaming of artistic and scientific processes combined. This project joined artistic higher education schools in dance and scenic arts (ESD and FCSH) and Polavieja lab, a neuroscience research lab in Champalimaud Foundation – Center for the Unknown. This text aims to reveal the creative choreographic and performative potentials hidden in this scientific research concerning neurosciences. Identifying cross materials to artistic and scientific processes, it was possible to design a structure of the creation process and the construction of a choreographic performance. The common platform has been found in the process of translation and the definition of the same concept substrate, which made possible the approach of the two instances: studio and laboratory. One of its key features is the promotion of the communication among its agents: scientists and dancers. And the possibility of modelling and absorption from what it comes from this sharing and collaboration. The methods and the choreographic procedures mirrored and promoted this sharing and, therefore, the involvement of the body. Where, the body is the agent able to reflect and trigger this process, a body as an essay that is constantly in research. A body able to coordinate between various media and to expand the reflection on itself. Although science and art are individual instances that inevitably specialise and segregated away. Therefore, this text focuses on examples of cross-thinking of both scientific and artistic cultures, and the articulation of the theoretical and practical bodies in a practice-as-research on the development of the ENSAIO creative process.
