Body, Space, Camera

Workshop Meike Redeker
© Meike Redeker

Facilitator: Meike Redeker

Location: exploratorium berlin, Studio 2

The workshop is aimed in particular at people with a background in performative disciplines who wish to further develop their artistic practice through the use of video. The potential of the interaction between video and performance is made tangible and space is created for free experimentation.

The focus of this workshop is on the aspect of spatiality in video performance. What does it mean when the video image extends or replaces the stage, when the camera can manipulate or redefine the perception of space?
And how can bodies move through these digital images, be present, define space, claim or occupy space?
The camera can see and overlook. Fade out and bring into focus.

The camera is not understood as a pure documentation medium, but as a co-performer that helps to shape, interact, change content and intervene. The camera, its field of vision or the video projection can inspire certain movements and actions. Conversely, movements and actions can inspire how the filming camera is used.

No previous video experience is necessary.
Please bring a camera (e.g. video camera, photo camera with video function or smartphone) and a laptop on which a video editing programme is or can be installed.
