"Embodied, networked performance – Lab”

This seminar is open to all those interested in the combination of analog and digital performance, as a creator and/or as a performer, or as a collaborator/designer.

“Embodied, networked performance – Lab” aims to act as a sensorial and reflective incubator, expanding and enriching the connection to performative, installative, and digital/interactive artistic creation today.

 Embracing practices and discourses related to the digital arts and performative somatic practices, the course is an “in-action” reflective laboratory on corporeal and perceptual relationships to space, objects, and the other. In this context, the diversity and complementarity of the skills, interests and points of views of each participant is expected to foster a transdisciplinary ground for the exploration and analysis of performance. The work is done mainly in the classroom-studio, where body awareness practices and voice work will be introduced. The participants will be led to experience performative situations and to reflect on and articulate their perceptions of them. At times alone and at other times in collaboration with others, they will be brought to progressively develop new performative sketches intertwining analog and digital concepts, or to work on their existing current performance projects in greater depth. For those more interested in the conception aspect, it will occasionally be possible to take the position of active observer; in this case, note-taking and the oral analysis of the action taking place are expected.

Please note that this course being practice based, physical presence is requested.
