SUMMARY:Workshop with meLê yamomo: "Post:Migrant Presences"
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, December 2 // 10am – 2:30pm EDTRegistration limited—sign up here!8/15 spots reserved for BIPOC participantslunch providedUniversity of Guelph103 Mackinnon Building87 Trent Lane \nHow can ‘presence’ interrupt dominant aesthetics? How could the inhabiting of the here and now be a revolutionary act? If history is a musical score of modernity or a play script of colonial conquest\, how can improvisation be a radical act of decoloniality? \nThis workshop explores how ‘presence’ constitutes aesthetic experience\, and how the aesthetic reshifts how we compose or order the world. In understanding our movements\, mobilities\, and presences within social\, geographical\, and historical spaces\, how might our improvisation radically shift history?  Parousia\, according to philosopher Hans-Georg Gadamer is the state of absolute presence—the timelessness of an experience despite and within its multiple repetitions in art and performance. In suspending time through parousia\, how can we decolonize fixed scores and deterministic dramaturgies to improvise and migrate our present to new futures? \nMORE ABOUT OUR SPEAKERS \nMELÊ YAMOMO\nmeLê yamomo lived in Lucena City\, Los Baños\, Metro Manila\, Seoul\, Bangkok\, Warwick\, and Munich\, and now inhabits Amsterdam and Berlin researching\, teaching\, and creating performance/theatre and sound/music.
