SUMMARY:Desire and repetition – playtest
DESCRIPTION:Contact: sylvia.lysko@iac.lu.se\n\nPlease join our playtest!&nb
 sp\;An early work in progress of the latest collaboration between us\, Emm
 a Bexell and Filip Rahim Hansson. During a couple of days at IAC we’re c
 ontinuing our development of a setup that hacks the random intimacy of cha
 troulette\, and lets participants spy on one-on-one encounters between str
 angers. On chatroulette platforms people seek spontaneous online connectio
 ns churned out in repetitions of awkward interactions\; filled with trolls
 \, exhibitionists\, or people selling something. We try to make a crack in
  this mirror exercise and find some new angles to the commodification of d
 esire.Registration: Please register by sending an e-mail to emma@bexell.ne
 t.Emma Bexell is a multidisciplinary performance artist based in Malmö\, 
 Sweden\, known for her work as artistic director and founder of theatre co
 mpany Bombina Bombast. She creates works for stage\, screen and other site
 s characterised by a curiosity for the encounter between thought and techn
 ology. In her work the politics behind our every day encounters materialis
 e as performances\, games\, films\, interventions or publications. She has
  a playfully provocative and inquisitive approach in her participatory wor
 ks that often explore emerging tech and what it does with our attention\, 
 relationships and public spaces. Guest teacher at Malmö Theatre Academy\,
  Danish National School of Performing Arts and Stockholm Academy of Dramat
 ic Arts. Awarded with the Thalia award 2020 för the performance ”Ögonv
 ittnen” together with Stefan Stanisic and Sara Cronberg. Presented at fe

 Center Oregon\, Nanluoguxiang Theatre Festival Beijing\, Cannes Film Festi

 page - bombinabombast.comFilip Rahim Hansson is an artist whose work sets 
 out to stretch the boundaries and frames of reference in our society. Cent
 ral to his practice are questions surrounding perfection as something that
  is constituted by change and acceptance—perspectives that are guided by
  his studies of Dharma.Material as well as contextual versatility are key 
 for Rahim Hansson. Some of his work is on the playful side\, some of it po
 litical\, all joined under the artist's vision that art is telling us what
  we don't yet know. Through collaboration\, his own gallery and social pro
 jects\, Rahim Hansson spreads the idea that creativity has its own unique 
 form of perfection\, beyond common notions and societal conventions.Visit
