2026-27: COURSES, MODULES & WORKSHOPS
The Neutral Mask: Receptivity and Interdependence
This module invokes the Neutral Mask as an epistemological instrument to investigate "body-mind availability," intersecting the foundations of Jacques Lecoq with Thomas Prattki’s integral pedagogy. By deconstructing individual habitus, the laboratory facilitates a state of heightened phenomenological receptivity at the nexus of movement analysis and somatic archetypology. The Neutral Horizon serves as a stabilizing axis, anchoring the researcher in a transdisciplinary bridge between universal laws of motion and the mythopoetic imagination. This inquiry "re-wilds" the creative process, bridging human embodiment with more-than-human realms to foster embodied individuation and visionary co-creation.
► This practice-based research is available as an expansive course, a focused module, or a condensed intensive workshop.
► Who should join: Designed for performers, transdisciplinary artists, and researchers eager to investigate the intersections of somatic inquiry, relational interdependence, and movement as a basis for collective composition.

Presence: Deep Listening and Physical Dynamics
This module investigates the body as an evolving site for artistic research, integrating Conscious Movement, Jacques Lecoq’s physical grammar, and Pauline Oliveros’ Deep Listening® protocols. By positioning the practitioner at the intersection of somatic awareness and spatial composition, the laboratory explores how internal impulses translate into action. Participants engage with gravity, momentum, and acoustic resonance to deconstruct the mechanics of presence, enabling a bridge between sonic environments and physical expression.
► This pedagogical framework can be experienced as a full-length course, a specific module, or a condensed workshop.
► Who should join: We invite performers, sound artists, and somatic practitioners eager to investigate the physical mechanics of resonance and the dialogue between internal movement and acoustic environments.

Emergent Inquiries: A One-to-One Lab
This individual mentoring format is entirely bespoke, placing your specific artistic trajectory at the heart of the laboratory. It redefines "self-research" as a rigorous study of interdependence, exploring the porous relationship between your practice, your medium, and your environment. Together, we map how your internal creative impulses intersect with external systems, spatial dynamics, and collective narratives. By bridging your individual inquiry with relational praxis, this module transforms your personal research into a resonant, interconnected practice.
► Trajectory: The duration and focus of this lab are specifically calibrated to your unique research inquiries and original body of work.
► Profiles: Designed for independent researchers and advanced practitioners aiming to map the interdependence between personal creative inquiry, environmental systems, and collective narratives through a bespoke relational praxis.

Dynamic Landscapes: Geodramatics and Collective Composition
Rooted in the pedagogy of Jacques Lecoq and Thomas Prattki, this module investigates the world and its motions through the lens of geodramatics. By deconstructing the mechanics of effort and balance, the laboratory explores natural elements, materials, and animals to transform the body into a precise instrument for research. This practice invites practitioners to synchronize somatic inquiry with spatial patterns, bridging the "personal myth" with collective creation. Through the study of "le corps poétique", participants develop a resonant movement language for embodied individuation and complex composition.
► This practice-based study is available as an expansive course, a focused module, or a condensed workshop.
► Who should join: Aimed at movement practitioners, designers, musicians, and visual artists who wish to utilize geodramatics and "le corps poétique" as tools for translating natural dynamics into complex, collective compositions.

Worlding: Socially Engaged Art and Field Research
This module extends artistic research into the public sphere through socially engaged art and community-based field research. Participants investigate "worlding" as a deliberate act of spatial and social co-creation, engaging with local environments as active collaborators. By synthesizing field research with creative action, artists learn to design interventions that are both site-specific and socially resonant, transforming the researcher into a facilitator of presence.
► These field-based practices can be structured as an immersive course, a thematic module, or a condensed workshop.
► Profiles: Designed for advanced practitioners and researchers who engage with the public sphere as a site for radical witnessing. We welcome those seeking to bridge field research and creative action to foster transdisciplinary interconnectedness through rigorous embodied inquiry.

Edge Walking: Transdisciplinary and Cultural Intersections
This module explores the threshold where diverse disciplines, cultures, and worldviews converge. Participants investigate the dynamics of the "in-between," developing the agility required to create at the limits of their primary practice. The laboratory focuses on the artist as a mediator of complex systems, learning to navigate cultural friction and hybridity without losing their center. Practitioners transform the "edge" into a generative space for innovation and global dialogue.
► This transdisciplinary study is available as an extended course, a standalone module, or a condensed intensive workshop.
► Who should join: Open to multidisciplinary practitioners and mediators seeking to navigate cultural hybridity and the "in-between" spaces of artistic practice, fostering the agility needed to transform friction into generative creative tools for global dialogue.

Resonant Territories: New Opera and Vast Narratives
This module deconstructs traditional Western operatic structures to investigate fundamental tenets through a global lens: the embodiment of cosmoperceptions, vibrations traveling through vastness, and ever-changing fields of entanglements. Engaging with Majority World repertoires, the laboratory utilizes the operatic territory as a site for artistic research to deepen the art of listening as a relational praxis. By bridging ancestral knowledge with emerging local and global narratives, the course positions new opera practice as a tool for navigating shifting paradigms and collective resonance within the social sphere.
► This inquiry into new opera can be facilitated as a comprehensive course, a dedicated module, or a condensed workshop.
► Profiles: Specifically developed for contemporary opera practitioners, creators, and researchers interested in decolonizing operatic structures and investigating planetary narratives through the lens of Majority World repertoires and relational listening.
