I am
currently working in Vienna with Nikolaus Gansterer and Mariella Greil on the project
Choreo-graphic Figures: Deviations from the Line. Our Method Lab II focuses on the
sharing of practice and working methods around the notation of notion and the materiality
of language. Throughout
July and August, we (the key researchers) have been working closely with our
invited ‘sputniks’ (Alex
Arteaga, Christine de Smedt and Lilia Mestre) and critical guests (Werner Moebius and Joerg Piringer) towards the development of Radical Scores of Attention - an experimental working process
combining three interrelated modes of practice: (A) Practices of attention; (B) Live artistic
exploration; (C) Practices of conversation.
On Monday 10 August we host a
public event for testing an experimental score system which brings these three
different modes of practice into relation. Specifically, we propose to test the
way in which practices of attention and conversation impact upon artistic
exploration, as a means for sharpening, focusing or redirecting one’s
attention.
