Reminder CFP: Performance Philosophy Problems 2021 conference in Helsinki

The fifth international conference on performance philosophy is hosted by University of the Arts Helsinki, and it is arranged in collaboration with the Performance Philosophy network in June 9-12, 2021.

The thematic focus the conference is matched by its strategic aim: to develop non-hierarchical interaction and self-organisation between participants and to increase inclusiveness. This is why, in addition to individual and panel presentations, the conference is introducing a new organisational model, in which the habitual ‘keynote speakers’ will be replaced by collective agencies, key groups.

Performance Philosophy Problems (PPP 2021) welcomes two types of proposals: (1) individual and panel proposals or (2) key group proposals.
