I was born and raised in Germany where I studied music and dramatic arts. I worked for many years as a theatre director in Germany, but in 1994 I followed an inner impulse and moved to Athens, Greece. I now work in Greece as a theatre director and acting teacher at several drama schools. I have always considered Greece the birthplace of western theatre, and Athens seemed like the right place to research the universal theatrical language and perhaps to discover the secrets behind the artistic creative process. So I should not have been surprised that it was here in…

The soul is extended everywhere along the body, says Descartes; it is entirely everywhere all along it, on its very surface, insinuated within it, and slipped into it, infiltrated, impregnating, tentacular, inflating, modeling, omnipresent.

The project 58 (+1) indices on the body is a collaboration between the artistic collective AMAE and the artist Pier Giorgio De Pinto with the philosopher Jean-Luc Nancy. The topics come from the treaty 58 indices sur le corps (Editor’s note “58 indices on the body”), written in 2006 by Jean Luc Nancy and related to his book Corpus. The project has a blog: http://58indicesonthebody.wordpress.com/ This blog is the ideal platform to collect all the ideas, images, videos, texts and documentation of other nature this collaboration will produce through the exchange between all people involved. Mr. Nancy wrote exclusively for the project four new post-indices…

Call for proposals (book): This Body is in Danger! Shift-shaping CorpoRealities in Contemporary Performing Arts Editors: Aneta Stojnić, Christel Stalpaert and Marina Gržinić http://www.theaterwetenschappen.ugent.be/bodydanger Book theme: Changing corporealities in the light of: 1.

Activism - from performing protest to cultivating ethics in a diplomacy of dissensus 4. EthicoAesthetics - from moralism to decolonial aesthetics One of the hallmarks of the 20th century is what we could call a corporeal turn, that focussed the attention of political and theoretical considerations on…

Edinburgh Critical Studies in Shakespeare and Philosophy Editor, Kevin Curran (University of North Texas) “Edinburgh Critical Studies in Shakespeare and Philosophy” takes seriously the speculative and world-making properties of Shakespeare’s art. Maintaining a broad view of “philosophy” that accommodates foundational questions of metaphysics, ethics, politics, and aesthetics, the series also expands our understanding of philosophy to include the unique kinds of theoretical work carried out by performance and poetry itself. These scholarly monographs will reinvigorate Shakespeare studies by opening new interdisciplinary conversations among scholars, artists, and students. For further information, or to discuss submitting a proposal, please contact the series…

Before I begin I must address an apology to you all. Perhaps you all have already lived this particular situation: you have pages and pages regarding your investigation, they seem to have a logic within them, how concepts play with others or are connected to others, but when faced with a strict economy of time and you need only to address one problem it is terribly difficult to find a Ariadne who will give you a thread, one that you must hold on in order not to loose yourself along the labyrinth of a problem. Of course we must be…

Hello everyone, while i'm waiting for my PhD defense, I decided to move to Berlin (11th of June) and start a new life. This to say, to all our Berliner friends, I would like to meet them, discuss some ideas with them, and even help with their work and research if they would be interested. I'm trying to develop further the problem questioned on my PhD for a post-doc fellowship, but for most important is to be close to people working on performance philosophy. So, please get in touch with me. Best regards
