Confronting communication. Listening, not only audition but kinesthetic. Tuning, relating the body in space. Dealing with limits, filtered through the 2-D screen or imagining, not looking at the screen, challenging what’s (in)visible. Different from making decisions based on sight, the body is a tool for in-vision, implying and challenging the primacy of vision. An on-going project started in 2016 between Portugal and Holland, a domestic streaming. Out of a 2-D communication, what to unroll? Some forms of 3-D points? More camera movements? Untwining images with several frames? Showing it to the world? Questioning private as public space-time-performance, reality is/are screens, phones, computers, continuing dealing with what’s there or not. Questions: (In)Visible connections? Away from known paths or towards them? Away from pleasing an audience or having fun? Our purpose in these immersion performative structures is to reinforce research “in-touch” with meaning.
