“Corpo Híbrido. Ato de vestir e despir o efémero”
(2025)
Ana Sousa Santos
A performance “Corpo Híbrido. Ato de vestir e despir o efémero” (2025), procura refletir sobre conexões simbioticas entre seres.
Com o vestir-se de germinados, veste-se o efémero, e o corpo funde-se com o elemento vegetal, uma transformação num ser híbrido, habitante da fronteira entre dois mundos. O corpo transforma-se em paisagem, enquanto a paisagem o acolhe.

The Wager of the Algorithm: Towards a Performatic Gesture
(2025)
Peter Freund
The fantasy of the algorithm and, by extension, artificial intelligence imagines that each performs by executing an operational task. Yet, based on its inherent computational structure, the digital performance fails to live up to its instrumental promise. This failure foregrounds an occasion for artistic intervention. “The Wager of the Algorithm: Towards a Performatic Gesture” presents a theoretical statement (illustrated via artwork by the author) in which the overall exposition underscores a dialectic within instrumental reason itself. The “prompt” names are a shorthand for the fulcrum of this problematic.
"Cultivating Ownership through Creativity: Three Curriculum-Integrated Activities for Beginner Clarinetists"
(2025)
Chelli Sara
Cultivating a sense of ownership in beginner music students is important for fostering engagement and self-confidence in their educational journey. This study explores how integrating creative activities into a beginner clarinet curriculum promotes ownership among students aged 9–11. Focusing on three specific activities tested in multiple case studies, the research investigates students' relation with their musical development. Findings reveal that using creative activities as part of a personalized, student-centered teaching approach enhances students' motivation and engagement, ultimately fostering a stronger sense of ownership in their learning experiences. The study also offers practical insights for music educators seeking to creatively teach instrumental skills while creating a meaningful musical experience for young clarinetists.
