Jessica Tanto, Juliana Luna Mora, Jeremee Bautista, Ben Koder MEga Yoga: A counternarrative experience

Rejuvenate your body and mind with MEga Yoga’s counter narrative yoga class.

MEga Yoga is a participatory embodied performance that uses the structure of a yoga class inviting participants to move their bodies slowly and their minds critically. MEga Yoga is a more than human collaboration between Jessica, Juliana and an Artificial Intelligence’s perception of the wellness industry’s values and ideals. The performance is accompanied by an original 30 minute New Age style soundtrack designed to function as an uncannily reflexive mantra. This participatory experience intends to invite participants to question the increasing commodification of spirituality through practices such as Western Yoga. The experience explores the nuanced capitalist and spiritual tensions that many wellness products, services and experiences present through sensory activation and embodiment as a way to actively reflect on these topics.

This performance is part of a creative practice research project which aims to raise awareness and spark conversations about participation within neoliberal spiritual practices and the wellness industry. Participants may choose if they want to share their experience as a part of this research.

Kiera Brew Kurec Archiving the Temporal: Emanate

Archiving the Temporal: Emanate was an intimate performance exploring the possibilities of preserving and archiving performance practice beyond photographic and video documentation. Using ritual as a framework for preservation, Archiving the Temporal: Emanate asks the audience to become custodians of the performance, then to pass on the performance beyond its original viewing and out into the wider community. The performance will be accompanied by a series of online discussions which have been generously supported by the City of Yarra small project grants.

Arini Byng, Sean Dockray, Tamsen Hopkinson, Steven Rhall, Jacqui Shelton, Fayen d'Evie, Public Office Means, of Production

Means, of Production is an experiment in building open-source software in an open dialog with a group of artists, in order to try and expand the idea of how artworks can live and evolve in the peer-to-peer space. It is a collaborative project between Bus Projects, Public Officeand six Melbourne-based artists. Funded as a result of Covid-19, initially the ideas sprung from an obvious lack of tools for making art works solely for an ephemeral, digital space. That’s what we hope to shift through this process.

Byron Dean Three Retracings, POLYCENTRE

‘Three Retracings’ is a sound publication that explores a process of returning, retracing and re-listening in urban space. Recorded periodically across three and a half years in Narrm Melbourne, Kaifeng and Suzhou; nine compositions form a set of sonic relations between neighbourhoods undergoing urban transformation in Australia and China. Placing three accumulative listenings in conversation across these contexts, the publication interrogates the contentious role of the field recordist as an itinerant documenter, archive-maker, visitor and tourist.
