Course curriculum
Myth and ritual are an integral aspect of culture and society, and as such an integral aspect of artistic practice. Throughout the course of the semester we will look at ritual and native cultures, reenactment, and its use within performative practice in terms of samanism, the guru, and the creation of a tribe whether as a unique social entity or a digital community. We will also look at work that is inspired by a return to paganism or inspired by a close relationship to nature and phenomena that are to be found through its observation and animation. Particular attention will be paid to the concept of experience and its transference into an open artistic work which assumes participation and/or interpretation.
