Three ex­perts and per­for­mers with non-nor­ma­ti­ve bo­dies were in­vi­ted to this Move Tank to con­tri­bu­te their spe­ci­fic re­qui­re­ments for mo­ve­ment in or­der to work prac­ti­cal­ly on the is­su­es.

HTA Ring lec­tu­re - from No­vem­ber 9th

Crip­ping On­line Lec­tu­re Per­for­man­ces?! On the per­spec­tive of the lec­tu­re as a per­for­mance from a queer, dis­ab­led, deaf, chro­ni­cal­ly ill per­spec­tive.
What are is­su­es that queer, dis­ab­led peop­le are cur­r­ent­ly con­cer­ned about? What is know­ledge of and about disa­bi­li­ty, how is it ge­ne­ra­ted, ar­chi­ved, and sha­red? How do dis­ab­led, deaf, or chro­ni­cal­ly ill ar­tists cur­r­ent­ly par­ti­ci­pa­te in know­ledge pro­duc­tion re­la­ted to disa­bi­li­ty? What bar­ri­ers do you face in aca­de­mia, what bar­ri­ers do you face in thea­ter and per­for­mance? What is a lec­tu­re per­for­mance? Can the lat­ter be "cripp­led"? What does the me­thod of "crip­ping" ac­tual­ly mean? (How) does it open up not only in­sti­tu­ti­ons, but also forms and for­mats? And (how) can it per­for­ma­tively make hig­her edu­ca­ti­on ac­ces­si­ble to all?
The six-part on­line lec­tu­re se­ries, un­der the ar­tis­tic di­rec­tion of Ste­ven Sol­b­rig, ad­dres­ses the­se and other ques­ti­ons. Non-dis­ab­led, dis­ab­led, deaf and chro­ni­cal­ly ill per­for­mers and aca­de­mics are in­vi­ted to ap­pro­pria­te the "clas­sic lec­tu­re time" (90 mi­nu­tes) in crip time & space and to frame their on­line talk(s) and lec­tures per­for­ma­tively.

MA CoDE par­ti­ci­pa­tes in the first date of the lec­tu­re se­ries tog­e­ther with MADE stu­dents at Uniarts Stock­holm.
