The Vitals for Young Dance

The BodyCartography Project began in 1997 and is directed by Olive Bieringa and Otto Ramstad. Our ventures include dance performances, installation works, film/video projects and educational workshops. We investigate and create with the bodies' relationship to the physical, architectural, climatic, technological and social landscapes that we inhabit in urban/wilderness and private/public contexts. We engage and provoke audiences in diverse contexts through collaborative processes with independent artists, and national and international companies and communities. We have created works for over one hundred and thirty performance events in the USA, Canada, Brazil, New Zealand, Japan, Europe and Russia.

MEANDER International Platform for Sustainable Art and Life Practices is pleased to offer a series of presentations by a cohort of international collectively-focused, multidisciplinary artists, activists and thinkers whose work in Brazil, Chile, Norway, Denmark, Australia and the United States explore why the commons is an important framework for understanding ecological emergency. Olive Bieringa will lead a session as part of the live event which will stream online Saturday December 4 beginning at 4PM (Oslo), 12PM (Santos), 10AM (New York) on www.meanderinternational.org.

“TØR – Experiential Humanities” Embodied Knowing workshop November 18

“TØR – Experiential Humanities,” is a research group based at the Institute of Media and Communication at the University of Oslo.

Welcome to the TØR seminar:
“Embodied Knowing” A Session on Sensory Experiences as Sources of Knowledge with Olive Bieringa and Otto Ramstad

13.00-15.00, Nov 18, 2021

Touch and movement form the fluid ground for all our sensory experiences, and these affect the very way we think and understand the world. We will practice approaches we can experiment with and apply to our research. How can our sensory experiences, specifically movement and touch, function as sources of knowledge in their own right, sources that inform our conceptual thinking?
