Join ICA Miami for a conversation about the newest entry in an ongoing series of books on the subject of intersubjectivity, Intersubjectivity Vol II: Scripting the Human. This collection of essays considers the relationship between human performance, subjectivity and the body. It explores the ways in which performance is decoupled from human embodiment via forms of mediation, mechanical reproduction or simulation. Others seek to examine how performance is conceptualized, and it's evolution within the contemporary art world. After joining ICA for the talk, make sure to stay in the museum for their special First Friday event.
This collection of essays considers the relationship between performance, subjectivity, and human agency. Certain texts explore the ways in which performance is decoupled from human embodiment via forms of mediation, mechanical reproduction or simulation. Others seek to examine how performance is conceptualized. Encompassing both historical and speculative perspectives, Scripting the Human explores the ways in which non-human (or trans/post-human) entities complicate notions of subjectivity and exert intersubjective pressures of their own on social, political, scientific and philosophical discourses.
