Animal spirits wander through the night. Bruises appear on people’s bodies. Echoes of displacement and slavery of Afro-descendants find resonance in the melancholic landscapes of the Mexican Costa Chica. https://moretones-film.com/

Performing Reflection: Improvisation in Word, Thought, and Action by Ivar Roban Krizic

Date: Thursday, December 12, 2024

Time: 14:00 sharp

Location: Klangtheater, AW VU149, Future Art Lab / mdw Campus,

Anton-von-Webern-Platz 1, 1030 Vienna

 

Improvisation as a starting point, with all of its intertwining pathways, roads which often lead nowhere, forcing us to retrace our steps, only to arrive somewhere completely new and unexpected. A final performance as a destination, a process of re-reflection, or a way of coming to terms with the process of a doctoral research project.

The Social Organization of Arts

To start from Scratch (FINAL) – Karl Salzmann

In his performance lecture (and final presentation of his doctoral project), Karl Salzmann will guide the audience through his on-site sound installation. Using the turntable as a tool for artistic research, he will give an introduction and overview of his project To Start from Scratch, in which he explored themes such as the history, materiality and artistic practice of this apparatus. In addition to sculptures and videos that are part of his installation, the presentation will include sounding objects and artefacts that were part of his research process, all of which culminate in a reflective documentation that will be handed out to the critics on that day.

Date: 01.07.2024

Time: 14:00H

Place: Zentrum Fokus Forschung, Rustenschacherallee 2-4, 1020 Wien
