breathing commons: tuning scores + scent praxis

→ Three Sessions: Oct 16 + 17

→ Friday, October 16, 6-8pm ET; Saturday October 17, 2-3pm ET; Saturday 4-6pm ET
→ Zoom

Co-taught by margit galanter of the vivid grove and agustine zegers of Speculative Scent Lab.

A 3-part, experimental session exploring the critical dimensions of breath and its odorants. Part para-pedagogical inquiry, part study group, part somatic and embodied play. These sessions are seasonally anchored, engaging the metal element of Fall and its association with the lungs—inviting our somas and alveoli into collective practice.

margit will share praxis through the lens of Lisa Nelson's tuning scores—sensory-based compositional practices that come alive in application and collective motion. agustine will share avenues of critical engagement with scent as a methodology of proliferating solidarities. As a group, we will play and study together with ample time for individual exploration in place. Come to full workshop or a single session.

This class will be held as three virtual 2-hour modules throughout Friday and Saturday October 16-17, with recordings available asynchronously to all those who register.
