Research / movement meeting "Mechanical bodies".
Tuesday, May 29, 2018 from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
Faculty of Science, Bât. 1, Triolet campus
Leonardo Montecchia / choreographer, Cie de la Mentira
Patrick Canadas / lecturer-researcher, Mechanics Department of the Faculty of Science and LMGC
These bodywork sessions, led in pairs with a teacher-researcher, are the result of a collaboration initiated at the time of his residency at UM in 2015/2016.
"We want to continue to question the involvement of the teacher-researcher's body in his or her daily work of research and teaching. These meetings are run as a movement-based workshop, questioning each theme through instructions and exercises derived from different body practices; they are prepared in collaboration with a researcher, for a particular meeting, around a specific subject. Using movement as a conduit for knowledge, the body becomes a space for experimentation, experience and reflection."
