Hello ATS! My name is Garrett Johnson. I’m new around here and it’s been really fun to begin to learn about the program thru events and exhibitions.
I wanted to share with you some happenings I am organizing next Friday for part of the ongoing SloMoCo experimental & durational gathering event. SloMoCo is a part of MOCO, the international conference on Movement and Computing, which coincidently will convene in Chicago next summer!
Next Friday @ 11-12.30 CT we’ll feature presentation/performances from SloMoCo practice works and microresidents.
Following, from 12:45-2.15 CT, we’re joined by choreographer, theorist, and media arts Grisha Coleman to discuss her ongoing work “The Movement Undercommons”. She explore mocap as a technology of resistance by create vernacular movement portraits of people in historically marginalized communities with a mobile mocap field kit.
All are invited! You’ll find links to registration above. I hope to see some ATS folks there.
