Saturday 20 March 4 - 5:00pm Imploded action, dissonant affects
Towards a new politics of non-relationality?
A seminar on dissonance and affect with Amanda Beech, Mikko Canini, Bridget Crone, Jaspar Joseph-Lester, Marie-Anne McQuay.
Imploded action dissonant affects is an afternoon seminar addressing the relation or non-relation between space, image and sound, as well as our expectations for art's effective and affective potential. Central to the discussion is the question of what would happen if we were to radically rethink the relationship between image and meaning that is central to the way that we communicate about art, ideas... politics. How would we communicate, organize ourselves, be in common?
Accompanying Amanda Beech's current exhibition Sanity Assassin at Spike Island and co-presented with Media Art Bath, Imploded action dissonant affects invites artists, writers and curators to respond to issues raised in relation to the exhibition as well as their broader implications.
Seminar runs 4pm-5:30pm followed by drinks. Spike Island Gallery will be open 11-4pm and Sanity Assassin runs three times per hour. Tickets: £2 Students (with valid NUS), Spike Island Studio Artists & Spike Associates. Full price £4. The limited edition Sanity Assassin publication is currently stocked at Spike Island or can be ordered direct from Urbanomic | | | | | About Spike Island
