Events

For the third and final phase of SloMoCo 2021, the Provocations Project is looking to expand conceptually and geographically, to develop new questions, to pose them to new communities, and to distribute and decentralize this work by launching an Open Call for Calls for Provocations. Over the course of two sessions, we will share our approach to developing questions and provocations as a means to probe discourses within and between differentiated communities of practice. Participants of this two-part workshop will be invited to interrogate and remix the provocations process in relation to the prospective communities they wish to engage and provoke, and then, to submit a proposal to host a future call for provocations as part of the Provocations Project.

This event is the culmination of Phase 2 of the Provocations Track at SloMoCo. Following an introduction to the ongoing Provocations Project, provocateurs will take part in a lightning round of provocations, in which they make a brief statement and pose a question on the theme of: what aspects of your practice/research are invisible to your collaborators?

As part of the ongoing Provocations Project, this curated conversation series builds on an open call for provocations in response to the question of what aspects of your practice / research are invisible to your collaborators? From the growing collection of provocations, three ‘provocateurs’ will be invited in each episode to read their provocations through one another, exploring points of convergence and divergence in authorial, disciplinary, and cultural perspectives.

This event is the culmination of Phase 1 of the Provocations Track at SloMoCo. Following an introduction to the ongoing Provocations Project, fifteen ‘provocateurs’ take part in a lightning round of provocations, in which they make a brief statement and pose a question on the theme of: what escapes computation in interactive performance?

As part of the ongoing Provocations Project, this curated conversation series builds on an open call for provocations in response to the question of what escapes computation in interactive performance? Based on the growing collection of provocations, three or four ‘provocateurs’ have been selected for each episode to read their provocations through one another, exploring points of convergence and divergence in authorial, disciplinary, and cultural perspectives.
