CATALYSTS — Somatic Resonance App-Analysen für 14. Januar

«CATALYSTS – Somatic Resonance» is an augmented reality app of somatic states from the work of Icelandic choreographer Margrét Sara Guðjónsdóttir. The exhibition is a choreography of mixed reality technologies, kinaesthetic algorithms, affects, archival material and live bodies. Download the CATALYSTS app to immerse yourself in the resonant states of the dancers informed by Guðjónsdóttir’s meditative de-conditioning practice «FULL DROP into the Body». States of affective potential arise from awakening latent energies over time, across media and flesh, expanding what dance can be and how bodies can remember. This work is created by an interdisciplinary team of artists and researchers and is an intervention in the tensions and potential of current digital cultures. It participates in ongoing discussions around the expanded choreographies of inter-connectivity of mediated bodies, healing, feminism, notions of energetic citizenship, AI and the pathology of the wider social-political body within our bodies. Visitors to the exhibition carry the states from this choreographic exhibition outwards, like ripples in a collective somatic field.
