Affective Choreographies

Abstract

This publication is a part of the outcome of Ingri Midgard Fiksdal’s artistic PhD project "Affective Choreographies" (2013-2018). The project started within the framework of The Norwegian Artistic Research Programme, and was, in 2018, transferred to the new PhD programme in artistic research at the Oslo National Academy of the Arts. Artistic practice is at the core of this programme. At the same time, the artistic practice is to be accompanied by an explicit reflection, which grants others access into methods and insights that emerge from the artistic research. The artistic PhD project "Affective Choreographies" resulted in the six performances: "HOODS" (2014), "Cosmic Body" (2015), "Shadows of Tomorrow" (2016), "STATE" (2016), "Diorama" (2017) and "Deep Field" (2018), as well as the publication "Affective Choreographies" written by Fiksdal. This publication is designed by Aurora Bratli Brunvoll in dialogue with Signe Becker and Ingri Midgard Fiksdal.
