Seminar 1
Vibrational Sensing & Nomadic Pedagogies as Practice
9 October, 2024
This presentation contains a series of works, reflections, and references that constitute the notion of La Membrana (The Membrane) –an organizational apparatus and model structure for tuning into our vibrational reality– as a resonant territory for thinking and practicing. Based on the configuration and characteristics of a vibrational membrane, La Membrana is a stimulating and productive concept that fosters vibrational modes of thinking and being in the world. It is a structure that can function as a threshold activated by vibrations and that provides a fertile territory for nonlinear narratives, vibrational relationships, and oscillatory experiences. Through this presentation, we will explore these ideas and how they have formed the foundation for articulating my artistic practice and research.
