Event Description
Salamanca Moves Creative Intensive
Aeon is a new interdisciplinary, collaborative sound and movement project by Lz Dunn, Lawrence English, Shian Law and Lara Thoms.
Aeon evolves in each new location in collaboration with a group of local cross-disciplinary artists, thinkers and interested humans. Through a two-day creative laboratory interrogate ideas around perception, ecology, queer theory and flocking through the sensory explorations and physical strategies that inform the project. Participants will become collaborators in presenting Aeon at Salamanca Moves.

Aeon is a listening manoeuvre; a participatory experiment of sound, movement and group dynamics to queer and question what we think of as ‘natural’. Drawing on bird flocking strategies it invites you to navigate public space in a communal yet deeply personal experience. As we walk multiple paths toward a future in flux, Aeon envisions the space between civic responsibility and personal consent; between soaring clouds of wings and piles of pigeon poo to offer a paradoxical, complex and ever emerging horizon. THE CREATIVE INTENSIVE The Aeon Lab will hinge around discussions, listening exercises and physical workshops, based on walking, flocking and group navigation in outdoor sites. It is not a 'dance' workshop and no dance experience is required. The lab aims to bring together participants from a range of experiences and ages.
