Dear all: We invite you to participate in the second laboratory
"Shadows of the Dawn: Migration and the Indeterminacy of Community &
Immunity" - 13 June 2018
at Artaud Performance Center (Brunel University)
How do we confront a transcultural survival politics and better understanding
of migration and hospitality? The aim of these two workshops is to incite
debate and practical knowledge exchange between fields – theatre, social
works, education, human geography, political science, ethnography, media arts –
on pressing questions regarding notions of “imagined communities” during the
current resurgence of ethno-nationalism, exemplified by xenophobic hostilities,
divergent responses to the so-called refugee crisis, Britain voting to leave
the European Union, the election of Donald Trump, the rise of right wing
populism on the European continent. During the symposia-workshops, participants
will consider interlinked focal points that deal with community and immunity.
• Natural History of Migration/Immunity and Biopolitics
• Racism and Patriotism / Institutional and Systemic Sexual Violence
• Security, Nationness, Ethno-futurism, and the Theatre of Resistance
Activities include scholarly presentations/shorter provocations, workshops and
practice-based performances or fieldwork/film to be presented at our Artaud
Theatre – the workshop aims at integration of practice and research.
