Somatic Space

Location: TOP project space, Industriestr 40 / Schätzelbergstrasse 1-3, 12099 Tempelhof
Date: 15 April 2023
Time: 13:00 – 15:00

Through somatic and spatial modes and methods, we will explore the ways in which we shape and are shaped by other human bodies and non-human matter. The workshops will search for embodied and sensorial ways of negotiating autonomy and collectivity, dissensus and consensus, fluidity and friction. By resituating our relationship to ourselves and each other, we will explore how we resituate our relationship to space, moving from the “city as screen to the city as stage”.

The workshop will be led by Melissa Harrison, a researcher and practitioner working across soma, sociality, and space. melissaharrison.org
The workshop is open to all, regardless of experience, with a sliding scale from 7-15 euro. It will be held in English, however, German translation can be provided if needed and written translations can be provided for anyone who is hearing challenged. The space is wheelchair accessible with gender-neutral toilets. If you have any other needs or questions, please feel free to get in contact!

There will be limited spaces, so please register by email: melissa [dot] harrison32 [at] gmail [dot] com

Time: 18.00-22.00

XENODAZE No.1 : We kick-off our combination event series X E N O D A Z E on March 17th!

X E N O D A Z E will take place on the third Friday of each month and contain conversations about genre-, discipline-, gender-, and nature-bending theory alongside collaborative activities which demonstrate the irascibility of the real in the face of cultural assimilation and social construction. For the first edition of this event series, we’ll be doing the following:

Discourse:
An introductory meeting for a Xeno-feminist / Xeno-Architecture / Xeno-Object reading group, which will focus on the foundational manifestos of Laboria Cuboniks as well as texts from Armen Avanessian, Judith Butler, Donna Haraway, and any other useful sources we pick up along the way. Open for all who want to introduce themselves to these topics in a socratic manner, whether already an expert or completely new to these ideas! Read More

Mostly research-based, their artistic and architectural approaches address the challenges and opportunities of creating historical, political, social, and technological debates. Both classes explore practices that include various media and spatial experimentation, in different scales, from urban interventions to video, installations, performances, sound, and text. Read More
