Designing Community

A lecture-performance contribution to the proceedings of "Designing Community" at Espace Niemeyer. A collaboration with Lucie Kolb and Bernhard Garnicnig, "Capricious Characters of the Community: Let’s see how this plays out", play-acted the ever-present and unpredictable tonal qualities of communal interactions that limit and afford particular modes of participation. The presentation asked the audience to created character profiles which reflected performed institutional and collaborative roles, evoking how these reverberate through other, artificial means of satisfying the need we have to work together toward practical action.
