ABOUT THE 'MICROSCOPICPOLITICS DANCE' CLASSES

Starting from the premise that the transformations in the collective dimension refer to a reciprocal logic of transformations that take place in the bodies that compose it, this practice of microscopic activation turns to the cultivation of the body's sensitive potentialities.  From the recognition that we do not know everything that a body can do, and through the provocation of a modulation of attention to the vibrations of microscopic existences, the perceptive refinement is sought for the emergences, as potency of life, that occur in the interferences among the bodies of the environment. This practice is operated by an ethics of relationships that involves a redimensioning of attention to the velocities and intensities of the smaller and its aspects of ungovernability.
