withing Delphine Chapuis Schmitz --- Emma Cocker --- Laressa Dickey --- Sabina Holzer --- Ines Marita Schärer --- Litó Walkey This is an emergent ‘thematic node’ for exploring the relation of languaging and bodying: How does languaging affect bodying? How does bodying affect languaging? How does movement inform wording? How does wording inform moving? How can we explore ways for languaging/bodying with, through and from sensing and somatic practices? How to find wording and worlding for the polyphonies of somatic experiences? scores - notations - situations – conditions Initiated through the mutual witnessing of shared resonances and affinities during Convocation II, we conceived this ‘node’ as an emergent framework for experimenting together, for sharing embodied practising, for testing possibilities for a bodily becoming of language/words. Since November 2023, we have been meeting online to explore how we might create shared conditions and situations for practising body/languaging, both through being-with (online) and being-apart (offline). Currently, our shared exploration unfolds through the rhythm of rotation, an evolving constellation of ‘pairings’ and ‘proposals’ based on a bi-monthly cycle. For each bi-monthly iteration, a pairing (two of us working together) devises a score/proposal/invitation/focus which we then all collectively test, enact, activate, reconnecting together after a period of practice (1 month) for sharing materials / findings / discoveries / reflections from the shared research process. Being in doing. Being in practice together. Body/Language. Between the two, activating the between. Moving between different modalities, shifting from one to the other. Tilting towards. Along-siding.
