Laguna de fracasos
Abstract
EN:
Lagunaries arises as a practice in common from an online virtuality imposed in the context of isolation by the Covid-19 pandemic. Taking possible affections, bodies, knowledge and genealogies as repertoires, we look for altered ways to make the word act [to speak out], breaking the hegemonic device of knowledge transmission, of being together, hacking its binary logic. This group laboratory made up of dancers, performers, educators, researchers, filmmakers and archivists, takes the construction of collective knowledge and the potential of the virtual body as its nodal axis of research.
We perform theories, we investigate modes of escaping the lineal narrativity, using polyphonic and choral forms of thinking / moving / saying / existing. We inhabit the irony of a virtuality that imposes a distance on us and at the same time it hacks all geographical borders. A practice that does not yet have a name, a performance that is always provisional, weaving voices and actions through listening and activating our own and other people’s writings.
We ask ourselves: What is knowing/knowledge? What/where is its archive? How is collective knowledge built? What do we need to know about the other to build a common doing, an affection? What can a collective body do? What can a virtual/digital encounter achieve?

Performeamos teorías, investigamos modos de fuga de la narratividad lineal, formas polifónicas, corales de pensar/mover/decir/existir. Habitamos la ironía de una virtualidad que nos impone distancia a la vez que hackea las fronteras geográficas. Una práctica que aún no tiene nombre, un hacer performático que siempre es provisorio, y entrama voces y acciones desde la escucha a partir de escritos propios y ajenos. Nos preguntamos ¿Qué es saber? ¿Cuál es su archivo? ¿Cómo se construye saber colectivo? ¿Qué necesitamos saber del otre para construir un hacer común, un afecto? ¿Qué puede un cuerpo colectivo? ¿Qué puede la presencia virtual?
