  • Abstract
    • Interaction is an important part of life. In Rhythmics, music education and music therapy contexts, where interaction is created by music, movement and various materials, this process opens up space in-between, where nonverbal communication and creative expression can take place. This article stresses that communication is more than just interacting through voice (verbal interaction). It emphasizes its possibilities and its value for artistic-educational work and shows how interactions can be initiated and continued through music, movement and materials by creating space for expression and communication on a variety of levels, which allows each participant to give and receive and dwell in possibility.
