'Experiments in Listening' was the name for a series of three dialogues that took place between September 2014 and March 2015. For each dialogue I invited another performance-maker who is also a friend to be in a room with me for a week. Those friends were Karen Christopher, Chris Goode, and Andy Smith. The invitation I made was that we explore the space between us as friends and performance-makers, in order to invite a kind of listening somewhere between the familiar and the performative.

Each residency was also accompanied by two sets of audiences: a live audience who were present for the final moments of the week, and a filmmaker who was present in whatever way they chose to be during the week-long dialogue. Next Thursday, we will be gathering together to watch the three films made by Lisa Cazzato-Vieyra, Griffyn Gilligan, and Jonathan Kemp, in response to their time observing the dialogues. The screening will be followed by a facilitated discussion with all the artists.
