877 Beaivvi (lohket) / 877 Days (Count them) er en kunstnerisk videoeksponering om samenes rettigheter, tid, dokumentasjon og repetisjon.

Curating in Context (2025) Martin Sonderkamp
This Exposition contains an archived version of the project website of the EU funded Erasmus+ Project 'Curating in Context’. Curating in Context addresses the challenges of curating contemporary art beyond curatorial approaches inherited from the visual arts. Tanzfabrik Berlin, Lokomotiva Skopje, Stockholm University of the Arts, and the University of Zagreb co-organised the two-year EU funded Erasmus+ project. It aims to enhance curatorial training focused on social impact by engaging local, regional, and international stakeholders, including cultural organisations. The project uses strategies from the performing arts to develop educational resources for universities and ongoing training for cultural workers and citizens. It fosters critical reflection on socio-political and economic contexts and promotes curatorial methods that connect performing arts with activism and social movements. The project's meetings, public events, and resources will emphasise collaborative learning between politics and art valorisation.

Afterwork: On Political Imagination and the Relation Between Human Labour and Automation through the Exploration of Post-Work Scenarios (2025) Ana de Almeida
Afterwork explores the shifting relation between human labour and automation through the lens of political imagination and speculative fiction. Building upon new iterations of the live action role-play (LARP) Afterwork, firstly run at Kunsthalle Wien in 2023, it investigates how art-based world-building methods can serve as critical tools for thinking beyond prevailing labour ideologies in the context of rising automation.

The dramaturgy of Conversation (2025) ingrid cogne
The dramaturgy of Conversation aims to tackle different approaches, analyses, and practices of conversations. Several forms of conversations and various related knowledges are questioned from different positions and perspectives. The data studied come from personal, external, or created (for and within the project) archives. In this project, researcher Ingrid Cogne analyses, develops or transforms, re-articulates and re-structures the ways in which one creates, inhabits, and facilitates conversations. The central question of The dramaturgy of Conversation as a methodology is HOW: How can the context, structure, location, and duration of existing or created situations of conversation support the (re-)articulation of the persons involved? How can one use or work with conversations? How can one read, inhabit, and embody the parameters of a conversation? How can one facilitate a conversation? How does a situation itself facilitate the meeting with knowledge? How can one create a situation of conversation that will be the facilitator itself? The dramaturgy of Conversation proposes situations, settings, and protocols of conversations that involve, combine, or isolate various languages (spoken, bodily, and written), “in-between” and relational knowledge, and dialogical methods and processes as well as formats of communication. The dramaturgy of Conversation is a methodology that focuses on “how” practical knowledge can be read, unfolded, and circulated within the “doing”. It is a research project that facilitates the access to the unknown and the inarticulable – navigating between quantity and quality, fiction and reality, material and immaterial, visible and invisible. This research is aproached by the author as the context wherein a self-reflective process can be (re-)articulated and CO- and reciprocal activations of hardly articulable knowledges can be performed. With this re/search, Cogne insists on the need of “conversation” to be practiced and considered as knowledge.

OS SONS DO SAGRADO: UM EXPERIÊNCIA SONORA NA IGREJA MATRIZ DE SÃO BERNARDO –MA (2025) Natacha Oliveira Pinto
Esta experiência criativa foi desenvolvida na disciplina de Epistemologia da Cultura, do Mestrado Interdisciplinar em Dinâmicas Sociais, Conexões Artísticas e Saberes Locais do Centro de Ciências de São Bernardo, da Universidade Federal do Maranhão. Vivenciamos a paisagem sonora da Igreja Matriz do município de São Bernardo, localizado no estado do Maranhão. Destacamos a sua importância religiosa, histórica, cultural e afetiva para a cidade, utilizando recursos poéticos e performáticos, a fim de evidenciar a paisagem sonora como expressão cultural. Buscamos compreender a relação entre os sons e a memória afetiva, investigando como a sonoridade influencia as percepções e lembranças do espaço, bem como refletir sobre a experiência performática, destacando o processo de escuta ativa e de imitação dos sons do ambiente. Como aporte teórico para alicerçar o processo criativo, utilizamos autores que discutem a escuta e paisagem sonora, em especial R. Murray Schafer, Pierre Schaeffer e Marisa Fonterrada.
