In conversation with ‘sputniks’ Alex Arteaga, Lilia Mestre, Christine de Smedt and guests, the lab will reflect on choreo-graphic qualities of translation processes, changes in perception and language forms. Expanding on previous research into forms of notation and ‘radical scores of attention’, the focus of this project will now be on experimental publication formats presented in different lectures, workshops and performances.
In cooperation with AIL and ImPulsTanz Festival, the summer lab will take place in the context of the artistic research project Choreo-graphic Figures: Deviations from the Line by artist Nikolaus Gansterer, choreographer Mariella Greil and writer Emma Cocker.
