more-than-human entanglements

Symposium

30 November 2023, 09:00-18:00
University of Applied Arts, Flux 2
Vordere Zollamtsstrasse 7
1030 Vienna

Dancing with the Nonhuman develops a posthuman, diffractive performance-making practice that seeks to explore our relationships with machines as radically entangled, performative encounters. Bringing together creative robotics, choreography, dance, and new materialism, the artistic research project harnesses dancers' kinaesthetic knowledge to probe into and challenge rigid subject-object boundaries to mobilize and reimagine them.

The concluding symposium seeks to foster an exchange between the transdisciplinary perspectives of the Dancing with the Nonhuman project and the positions and projects of invited artistic researchers, and to share this exchange with the public. Specifically, the day aims to open up a dialogue on more-than-human entanglements, looked at through the embodied and creative methodological lenses of performance and dance, as well as AI and robotics (and beyond).

Keynote: Johnny Golding (RCA London)

Invited artists and researchers: Johannes Braumann, Mariella Greil, Sabina Holzer, Manuela Naveau, Martin Reinhart, Lucie Strecker, and Geraint Wiggins
