OBJECTIVE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Radical Intimacies<\/strong> aims to transcend traditional understandings of intimacy, which has been historically limited by colonial heteropatriarchy. Instead, it promotes a relational ontology that fosters collective awareness as interdependent beings. Positioned as a micro-political experiment, its potential lies in the trust and care shared among people drawn to the concept of intimacy. The workshop provides a platform to reconsider our relationships with ourselves, others, and the non-human world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this workshop, participants will identify four poetics of intimacy:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1) embodied word, dialogue & writing;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) listening, sound & silence;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3) contact, affective touch & relational dance;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4) micropolitics & ecologies of care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CONTENT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The workshop aims to share transdisciplinary methodologies drawing on affective theories, speculative feminism, 4E cognition, Butoh dance and deep listening practices. Through a series of explorations including Butoh dance, movement and contact, blindfolded experiences, sound and silence improvisations, embodied writing and more, participants will immerse themselves in the transformative power of both affecting and being affected. This experiential journey not only leads to an acknowledgement of the profound respons-hability (Haraway, 2016) that arises from ontological interconnectedness, but also fosters an activism of the erotic that echoes Audre Lorde’s insights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
