The Institute for Scene Experiments: Surplus Reality

In short

The Institute for Scene Experiments

Surplus Reality

 

You are invited to participate in a workshop with the Institute for Scene Experiments on Saturday 12th October from 15:30 to 20:00.

The workshop entitled ‘Surplus Reality’ is an experiment in collective practice and is set within a realist frame to examine social questions. We will collectively develop a short improvisational scene taking place in the exhibition space with two studio cameras, professional lighting and lavalier microphones: the starting point will be a realistic dialogue for two or more characters in a gallery, departing from a frame text derived from dialogues in the films of Swiss Filmmaker Anne-Marie Miéville. Once the parameters of the scene are established we will experiment in recording different ways to represent it. At the end of the workshop the raw footage will be shared with the participants.

Participation will require being in a variety of roles, from performing, sound, camerawork, lighting and text work. By participating in the workshop you consent to being filmed. To register E-Mail with a brief line about who you are and your interests in the workshop.

ProtoZone16: Hallucinogenesis extends an invitation to focus on the profound, unarticulated knowledge and feelings that reside within you—those depths of experience that often defy verbal expression.

 

This process-based exhibition offers a space to heighten your awareness of its own driving forces: the subtle processes of intuition, dreams, desires, atmospheres, vibes, currents, undertones, memories, presences and hallucinations.

Time is
Pressure*

In short

with: Débora Delmar, Daniel Felstead, Dora García, nvk, SERAFINE1369

artist-in-residence: Fernanda Muñoz-Newsome

 

Our time is under pressure. It is social and geological; emotional and physical. Time has been accelerated, and now we are facing both its immediacy, and its pressure.

 

How to deal with the confluence of our presents, and its constant revisions on the narratives of our pasts? What are the possible futures that can come from the ever constricting presence of time? And how to find agency in the pressure of time, finding our self or selves as glitches in its relentless desire for progress?

*The title “Time is Pressure” is borrowed from Cally Spooner’s words around “DEAD TIME (Maggie’s Solo)” 2021, which was presented in our previous ProtoZone14 “Staying Close” as a prologue to the current one.

Opening times:

until 04.08.

Zone14:
Staying
Close

In short

CLICK HERE FOR EASY LANGUAGE

 

For ProtoZone14 Shedhalle’s curatorial team comes together with a desire to stay close to the relationships and work we have developed over the past four years.

 

With Staying Close we invite you to see new ways of being and staying with one another. Looking for altered understandings of time and collaboration, history and practice. To us, this means looking for solidarity despite and exactly because of our differences.

 

ProtoZone14 hosts an ongoing film and a site-specific installation. The rest of the space and time is dedicated to what we feel is now most urgent: live gathering. We invite you to gather around dance, around poetry, music, excursions, workshops and meals.
