¡miércoles! is an improvisational group consisting of dancer / choreographer Stéphanie Janaina (Mexico), and musician Nicolás Jaar (Chile + USA). All the movements and sounds that happen during a ¡miércoles! performance are improvised. However, the performance is tied to a small show-specifc publication that is written by Stéphanie and Nicolás prior to the show. It is as much a footnote to the performance as the performance is a footnote to the text. It is compiled and laid out by close collaborator and visual artist Maziyar Pahlevan. ¡miércoles! means ‘¡wednesday!’ in English but in Chile it also means ‘¡shit!’
