Transformative Time & Space Dimensions

“For Massumi, affect is precisely a matter of how intensities come together, move each other, and transform and translate under and beyond meaning, semantics and fixed systems/cognitions. Part of the assumption here is that, even in the most reactionay circumstances, nothing happens if affective intensity has not already paid us a visit. This refines our understanding of why territory - spatial and temporal - is always “existential territory“. It has as much a territorry that enables movement as something that keeps everything in its place, it is movement itself.” Reading / Feeling - If I Can’t Dance Archives.

SPACE - physical & virtual. Terra incognita, to explore. TIME - different rythms.

Thesis intention

Practical steps

Method

1. First Prototyping Experiments:

1.1 Geometry : coordenation of visual elements - graphics. 1.2 Language - type; 1.3 Moving Images; 1.4 Sound; 1.5 Performance; 1.6 Scenography;

TOOLS:

- web desinginig; programming languages; computational creativity tools; other software.

- also considering: (moving) images - type/graphics; sound; multimedia installation; performance.
