hello Alan and all
since we are in retrospective mode, although also looking forward to changes, moving, moving out, moving back [?]), and looking at a larger resonance of conversation, why don;t you please try and find the "intimacy.txt" and repost it. I would be very interested, after all, the performance festival is only five years ago, and that book is fresh, and we can also perhaps address here the question of how others engage in conversation that can be sustained or opened perhaps (regarding music performance or durational time-space in collective improvisation and instrumentation....... the function of the instrument interests me lately, and i just came back from Croatia where at a dance workshop and symposium on new technologies, one of the artists, Goran Sergej Pristas, spoke very eloquently about camera/film capture technology and choreography and the instrumentalization of bodies.... The opening interests me, if artistic or media or theoretical or political or existential issues come up, here ( and "intimacy" I think is rather a poignant question, also diversely defined in that book, not just as closeness or proximity or erotic/physical but also as something that can be threatening, damaging, deceiving, delusive), and it would help me to hear from others whether they enjoyed the thoughts, or found them lacking? best Johannes Birringer [Alan schreibt] Hi Johannes, I do wish others would post on these topics as well; I always feel an odd distance on the Netbehaviour list, which I love, because I'm not in England, can't go and hear Marc for example. Oddly, I was in that Intimacy show myself and was asked for a text or the text in a sense, but what I had was a transcription, which I worked on, on the theoretical issues that formed part of the performance Sandy Baldwin and I did; that wasn't included in the volume and so I didn't get a copy. Somewhere I still have the intimacy.txt which is what I'd submitted. _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list [email protected] http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
