Monday 28. August:
Amanda Steggell, researh fellow at HIOF/Norwegian Theatre Academy.
Mind, the Gap.
Synaesthesia and contemporary live art practice.
- Mind, the Gap is a practice-based arts research project dedicated to developing live artworks that are inspired by the notion of synaesthesia - the cross-wiring of sensory perceptions. The manifestation of this research is an experimental instrument with synthetic synaesthetic abilities called The Emotion Organ. During my talk I will endeavor to draw lines between the rise (and fall) of the VJ, and my own attempt to build The Emotion Organ.
Amanda Steggell is a research fellow at the National research fellow programme in artistic research. Educated as a choreographer in London and Oslo, she established the independent live art company Motherboard with Per Platou in 1995.
