This
workshop will explore intimacy and presence within the context of the
recorded image, using this as a basis for form, instruction-based
action and one-to-one performance. The camera is often the interface
between performer, action and technology. It is a key element in the
relationships between kinaesthetic forms and digital outputs. It is an
important starting point and often under estimated. The relationship
between performer and camera operator, whether working towards a
pre-recorded or live output can be a creative and conversational
partnership. With attention and development it can be a complex
dialogue involving the intimate exchange of much knowledge.
Participants will explore the power of cinematography in the creation
of intimacy and presence. Sound will also be discussed as an integral
element.
INTIMACY is a three-day digital and live art programme made to elicit connectivity, induce interaction and provoke debate between cutting edge artists, performers, leading scholars, respected researchers, creative thinkers and local community. A culturally urgent series of events, INTIMACY is designed to address a diverse set of responses to the notion of ‘being intimate’ in contemporary performance and as such, in life. Framed as a forum for artists, scholars, community workers, performers, cultural practitioners, researchers and creative thinkers, INTIMACY will feature workshops, seminars, performances, and a 1-day symposium at Goldsmiths College, Laban, and the Albany during December 7th-9th, 2007. Featuring performances, workshops, seminars and a symposium, INTIMACY invites scholars, researchers, artists and audiences to enable the interrogation and creative exploration of formal, aesthetic and affective modes of performing intimacy now.
