Spectra | Salons are in-disciplinary art evenings across performance and visual art that explore the questions of spectatorship, imagination and spectacle and how they are intertwined, embodied and felt in the era of globalism and digitalisation. Hosted by Andrea Božić and Julia Willms in the TILT studio and the Salon of Marci Panis, Amsterdam from September to December, the Spectra | Salons 2023 feature a series of in-progress sharing sessions, experiments and conversations which follow our and our guests current artistic research processes and questions.
The Premonitions Agency Dream Collecting Station (test version) presented by Andrea Božić and Julia Willms in collaboration with the Premonitions Agency
Have you ever wondered about the untapped potential of your dreams? Welcome to the very first test version of The Premonitions Agency Dream Collecting Station. This experimental government agency initiative aims to collect citizens’ dreams and analyze them to predict possible future scenarios. We are excited to collaborate with the Premonitions Agency as part of the research for our new performance Within Cells Interlinked. The Premonitions Agency Dream Collecting Station seeks to explore the potential of dreams in predicting future scenarios. Your participation is crucial to our research: if you would like to take active part in affecting future scenarios, please bring a dream. We assure you that your data will be handled with the utmost care and confidentiality. Thank you for being part of this groundbreaking experiment.
Harry Potter and the Delicious Brunch (in-progress) by Billy Mullaney
Billy has recently been researching erotic Harry Potter fan fiction as the absolute lowest contemporary literary form.
He is curious about the communities that have sprung up around generating and sharing such texts, the mode of address with which they are written, and what might be “read” beyond the stories themselves. He is particularly interested in the use of fan fiction as personal fantasy fulfillment (using the protagonist as a stand-in for themselves and often having nothing to do with the source material), and how these stories can become indeed more legible as portraits of the author. Harry Potter and the Delicious Brunch is a short in-progress sketch exploring such a spectacle of self-indulgence, and which *might* develop into a performance in the future(!)
Entrance free. Donations welcome.
