Sarnelle and Sweidan will be giving us the backstory of and update on their ongoing work towards developing a “touch ensemble.” Touch Praxis is a collaborative project exploring touch as a time-based medium and co-creative knowledge practice. During this session, they will share what they learned from their participation in the LAPP Research + Development program this past summer. They have been investigating tactility, from the high stakes context of viral transmission to everyday consent negotiations.
We encourage participants to stay CASUAL at 1:00pm, which features artists Ajani Brannum + Vanessa Hernández Cruz + Jennifer Jonassen.
