PICA is delighted to be assisting Hellen Sky with the continued development of her work 'A Darker Edge of Night'. Garth Paine (UWS), Brandon Hur (Melbourne), Paul Bourke (UWA) and Hellen Sky will be adapting audiovisual environments to the architecture of PICA next week. Part installation, part performance and part lecture, Sky and her collaborators invite you to take a peek into the processes involved in the design and performance of their ongoing interactive hybrid work. This series of presentations called 'A Slice of Light' reveals the challenges and possibilities that digital interactive performance offers to the performer, composer and designers. It also explores the audience’s reception of non-linear interactive digital performance.

Sensorium Gy mnasium
Thinking Through the Body artlab
Saturday 1 August 11am AND 3pm

Sensorium Gymnasium is an open studio event of the Thinking Through The Body Artlab’s
collaborative research. The Sensorium Gymnasium is a place for both teaching and learning,
for discussion and experimentation. It’s a place for developing your embodied ability to
experience and create art.

Thinking Through the Body is an interdisciplinary research project exploring the use and
potential of touch, movement and physical experience in interactive art practice. The project
brings together eight diverse practitioners from the fields of visual art, design, sound,
performance and somatic bodywork. Over the past year the Thinking Through the Body team
has gathered for three intensive residencies based on knowledge exchange, discussion, and
collaborative research. This year of exploration culminates at Performance Space, where the
team will work together in a final residency to create a series of experiences and prototypes
that communicate the discoveries of their practice-based research to invited guests.
