CODA : Processus de recherche-création — retour sur l’expérimentation de la médiation phénoménale d’un corps collectif performatif by Isabelle Choinière

“…In order to understand this phenomenon, this essay suggests examining the interrelation of the notions of corporality (notion which concerns the physical body in its materiality, that is to say the anthropomorphic body), corporeality and embodiment in a transdisciplinary approach and as an anchoring to a dynamic of self-organization. …”

“Gestures of Air and Stone”: Translating Ethan Frome into Dance in Cathy Marston’s Snowblind by Adeline Chevrier-Bosseau

“…The very title of her piece, “Snowblind,” recalls the anthropomorphic (or rather, animalized) vision of the “outcroppings of slate” “nuzzl[ing] up through the snow like animals pushing out their noses to breathe” (Wharton, 1911 19): a face of stone half-buried in snow, whose orifices—eyes, ears, mouth—are covered by the falling snow that muffles their expression and their senses. …”

Looking closer: the eastern gate of the Early Bronze Age fortifications on Zyndram’s Hill and its relation to ritual practices by Marcin S. Przybyła, Jan Ledwoń, Magdalena Makiel, Aleksandra Wójcik

“…We shall try to justify this assumption based on various categories of evidence: the layouts of the entire defensive system of the settlement on Zyndram’s Hill and of similar fortifications in the Balkans, the landscape and astronomical context, the symbolism of some of the elements used in the gate (stone stelae) and the artefacts discovered in it (anthropomorphic figurines), and finally, the results of archaeological-botanical and microstratigraphic analysis of sediments. …”
