group: Intimacy: Across Digital and Visceral Performance

INTIMACY is both a group and a series of events designed to address an aesthetically and formally diverse set of responses to the notion of 'being intimate' in emergent and hybrid performance practices.

INTIMACY will provide a platform for the discussion of sub-cultural practices concerned with displaying intuitive, intimate and visceral relationships between artist and other. It thus affords contemporary practitioners, theorists and students the opportunity of practical and critical engagement with present co-ordinates that define these practices.

Some questions to be addressed include:
* How are bodies represented through technology?
* How is desire constructed through representation?
* What is the relationship of the body to self-awareness?

INTIMACY will explore technologies that can enhance 'closeness': networking technologies such as the Internet, wireless networks, telecommunications and Web.02; sensor technologies; virtual reality and other digital multi-user environments.

INTIMACY is organised by Maria X (drp01mc@gold.ac.uk)

Barbara Steveni conceived and co-founded the Artist Placement Group (APG), in London in 1966. Steveni’s innovative concept, based on a more holistic and intuitive view of Art than was current at the time, would take another 20 years to enter the mainstream. APG, later renamed O+I, acted as the precursor to current notions of ‘Artist in Residence’ and Public Art programmes. [read more...]
