Not online

But here and now

This performance has been created for the festival Convergence.

Based on the text Here and Now (which became the soundtrack of the performance), the action took place from the office room to the entrance of the Milford House where an old beech tree stands.

Convergence of writing and speech
Convergence of past and present
Convergence of beings (tree and human)
Convergence of living beings

THE NON-FUNGIBLE BODY

 

17. - 19. June 2022 at OK and Landestheater Linz

Linz has a new performance festival.  It brings together artists to address the importance of the live experience for our shared public sphere, focusing on the living body’s relationship to the digital economies of our time.

What do momentariness, uniqueness and (ir)replaceability mean to us, both in the context of the real and the virtual?

How do performance artists deal with the living body and its relationship to the virtual economies of our time?

This is an invitation to explore spicy intersections: of the body and the archive, of live performance and its digital renderings, of the physical space and the metaverse



With Cibelle Cavalli Bastos (BR), Marita Bullmann (DE), Yun-Chen Chang (TW), Beatrice Didier (BE), Jan Hakon Erichsen (NOR), David Henry Nobody Jr. (US), Sara Lanner (AT), Sajan Mani (IN), Boris Nieslony (DE), Yiannis Pappas (GR), Jianan Qu (CHN), Xavier Le Roy (FR), Sarah Trouche (FR), Rong Xie (Echo Morgan) (CHN)

 

Curators: Freda Fiala and River Lin
