Matemática e Movimento em Performance: um estudo de caso
ResearchGate has not been able to resolve any citations for this publication.
In this paper I present a methodology to video record auto ethnographic material and also to construct a specific performance art piece, On a Multiplicity. I also present how the method was used to construct a series of body movement improvisation videos. I will describe the process used to create this performance art piece as a real time construction of body movement improvisation and sound as voice, discourse, using the auto ethnographic video recordings, in order to create a multiplicity of (my)selves
This paper is devoted to the concept of turbulence, its several definitions, as well as its problematic in performance art as well as in mathematics. It is concerned more generally with the connections and interferences between mathematics and performance studies, within what we define as modern and contemporary societies, where the use of technology, software and the use of the internet are part of daily life and redefinition, or remediation of concepts emerge.
Turbulence is defined in the context of mathematics, and we focus especially in Partial Differential Equations context, where we find the concept since equations known as Navier-Stokes equations may have, under specific conditions, turbulent solutions. Also, in performance art context we recover the definition of turbulent states of the performer as they were defined or characterized by Eugenio Barba. We then relate both definitions with technology, software and internet to describe the construction of a concrete performance art piece, On a Multiplicity, where all these concepts are present and connected in order to generate new ideas.
This paper presents then a concrete performance art piece constructed under the influence of the concept of turbulence coming from mathematical as well as performance studies landscapes. On a Multiplicity mapped a multiplicity of self-representations from two fields usually seen as too different to be joined together. Its main object, in fact, was to test this claim, to question preconceived ideas about artistic creation and scientific research. The rationality of mathematical endeavour was recontextualized in the emotional milieu of improvisation: timeless abstraction was put in dialogue with embodied time. On the other hand, improvisation in real time was progressively distanced from the present of its performance as it was documented and the videos edited to meet different audience expectations.
This paper concerns concepts as Remediation, Immediacy and Hipermediacy in media studies and consider their characterization in Performance Art context, in particular when visual imagery is used to create self representations. We redefine these concepts, that is, we repurpose them, and we affirm a convergence of immediacy and hipermediacy in the case when using several self mediums of presentation and also a real-time body presence are part of the same performance. So, not only these concepts become part of the media based tools used within creation processes in performance, but they are also teoretical tools which allow us to expand visual performance studies. We present a concrete example of a Performance/Installation, On a Multiplicity where photography, video managing, webpages, and social networks were used along the process and where their convergence into a concrete object to be studied is the main idea.
This article argues the personal/professional/political emancipatory potential of autoethnographic performance as a method of inquiry. Autoethnographic performance is the convergence of the “autobiographic impulse” and the “ethnographic moment” represented through movement and critical self-reflexive discourse in performance, articulating the intersections of peoples and culture through the innersanctions of the always migratory identity. The article offers evaluative standards for the autoethnographic performance methodology, calling on the body as a site of scholarly awareness and corporeal literacy. Autoethnographic performance makes us acutely conscious of how we “ Iwitness” our own reality constructions. Interpreting culture through the self-reflections and cultural refractions of identity is a defining feature of autoethnographic performance.
In this paper I explore a brand of scepticism about perceptual experience that takes its start from recent work in psychology and philosophy of mind on change blindness and related phenomena. I argue that the new scepticism rests on a problematic phenomenology of perceptual experience. I then consider a strengthened version of the sceptical challenge that seems to be immune to this criticism. This strengthened sceptical challenge formulates what I call the problem of perceptual presence. I show how this problem can be addressed by drawing on an enactive or sensorimotor approach to perceptual consciousness. Our experience of environmental detail consists in our access to that detail thanks to our possession of practical knowledge of the way in which what we do and sensory stimulation depend on each other.
