AND Collective Practices

CARE PRACTICES
Fernanda Eugenio, Iacã Macerata, Ruan Rocha & collaborations from Mariana Ferreira
The Practices of Care consists of the experiential investigation of the applications of MO_AND in Clinical practices with the subjectivity and, reciprocally, in the explicitation of the dimension of care and clinical sense inherent in the exercise of MO_AND. They unfold from the interest in investigating the effects of care and the production of subjectivity present in the practices of MO_AND, experiencing the potential modulation of the materiality of subjective functioning, as well as performing a sensitive and situated approach to subjectivity as corporeality.
At the injunction between ethnography, art, subjectivity studies, psychology, collective health and psychoanalytic clinics, MO_AND turns out to be a conceptual and methodological resource for the production of care. Based on the reciprocity between MO_AND and practices of care, we seek to conceive, formulate and propose tools for the operation and collective production of care.
The possibility of the transversal clinical use of the tools of MO_AND forges a notion of care that deviates the notion of cure from its usual function of restoring order, by being able to (re)perform, each time, the tuning between the self and its environment, between the self and the other, between the singular and the common, between the individual and the collective, between the intimate and the political. In addition, it displaces care practices from the technical action of the specialist - from the formal knowledge prior to the relationship, re-situating them as ethics implied in and of the common, that is, as a modulation of the politics of coexistence. Such a notion of care therefore encompasses and inoculates healing as a practice of curation, placing on the same plane of reciprocity the continuous and ever-situated handling of the collective forms of the Event and the infinitesimal forces of Desire.
It is a network of assemblages that becomes a relational space or territory of relation, constituted by three mutually implied planes: the between-self/among-selves, a relation from self to self, in each living person involved; the among-us, a relation among-us, living persons involved; and the among-many, a relation among living persons and artifacts, landscapes, inhuman elements.
Traditionally used to produce sense-meaning, care practices are here re-generated to produce a sense-direction of creation and co-implication between the care of the self and the care of the geographic, social, and political environment. To the extent that they emerge as a modulation of living together, they (re)perform the self and the surroundings in a co-emergent way, turning themselves into a policy of reciprocity in the relationship with the Event: they decentre the narrative of the subject that explains or is explained, allowing a transfer of protagonism to the event. The Care Practices thus reposition the subject from the plane of the explicable to the plane of the unexplainable, therefore to the plane of implication.
Within the AND Lab, the Care Practices are researched in a variety of ways, subdivided between regular and durational practices with regular MO_AND members and practitioners, and those researched with participants in AND Lab activities and propositions throughout the year. They are currently distributed in 6 areas of incidence:
1. Inter-repair (among members of AND Care)
Research-meetings between members of AND Care that are dedicated to inventorying the analytical effects and subjective repositioning emerging from practices of care with MO_AND. It is constituted in an extended network of support and testimony, which cares for the caring, accompanies the accompanying, assists the assisting, handling affections longitudinally to the activities, workshops, meetings, courses and workshops of the AND Lab. In these meetings we also research the explicitness of a transversal plan, highlighting the implications and co-incidences between AND Care within AND Lab’s constellation, coming up with questions, formulations and in-situ propositions-interventions.
2. Inter-repair (with the AND_Lab's Direction)
This is a research-proposition-intervention with AND Lab's Direction, where we collectively exercise the Reparar (in)the multiple modulations between AND Lab, its members, and the activities they develop, attending themes related to sustainability, strategic sensitivities and planning, and reparative care.
3. AND Collective Meetings
Every two weeks we research the effects and interventions of in situ curatorship in the scope of the AND Collective, tracking processes that involve the AND Lab's clusters in Brazil and regular members of the AND Lab.
4. Individual Listening-Game
The Individual Listening-Game is a research practice and has been simultaneously constituted as a practice of care that adopts the Modus Operandi AND as a modulator of listening. This game is practiced based on a given experience participants have had while practicing MO_AND. It is aimed at regular or sporadic practitioners of MO_AND, provided they have had previous contact with the methodology. The Listening-Game is inspired by the methodology of the cartographic interview, in order to co-produce a sensitive experience based on a situation experienced during a given game. It adopts the Reparar (in) the experience, exploring its What, How, When-Where. The Listening-Game consists of a game of position-with the subjective contents mobilized in play. It can be initiated at any moment by any practitioner of MO_AND.
5. Conversation-Game
The Conversation-Game is an experiential research proposition that adopts the Modus Operandi AND as modulator of the Conversation, turning it into a game. It turns out to be an unfolding of the board plan to the conversation plan, whose limits are no longer physically traced by a tape, but felt by the tangibility of speech and listening. The Conversation-Game aims to research the different modulations of speaking and listening, and how they contribute to the constitution of a conversation as the plane of conviviality. In the Conversation-Game, speaking is performed as a position, and listening, as Reparar, engendering the common ground as made by speech and listening. As a research practice, it is inscribed as a tool for group practices of care and can be practiced together with the propositions of the AND Lab, in courses, workshops and laboratories.
6. Inter-institutional research with the Fluminense Federal University / Brazil
Research conducted between AND_Lab and the Department of Psychology of the Institute of Humanities and Health of the Fluminense Federal University, entitled "The caring dimension of MO_AND: contributions to a territorial clinic", which investigates the experience of the practice of MO_AND from the enactive approach of Francisco Varela. The research seeks to validate the practice of playing MO_AND as a practice of transformation, producer of care and training for care, circumscribing the relationship between Modus Operandi AND and the subjective experience.

Re-mediation Practices
Fernanda Eugenio, Manoela Rangel & Pat Bergantin
They constitute themselves as a field of sensitive investigation of ways to (re)connect artistic-somatic practices, a politicized spirituality and a spiritualized politics.
As a political gesture of reconnecting what dual thought inscribed as separate, the Practices of Re-mediation become practices of en/incorporation of de-scission, (a)firming the connection with other fields and integrating the planes that modern thought crystallized as 'natural' and 'supernatural'. This will be the same as sensitively remembering that everything that is outside is inside, and vice-versa, in an exercise of radical dis-identification and transitionality of the Self.
Starting from the resources and tools that compose Modus Operandi’s Body-Territory Practices, especially the practices of sensorial (auto)ethnography, ANDbodiment and the Games of Compearance, the artists proposed to accompany one another mutually "moving forces", in order to investigate more closely manifestations of the ethereal order that had been becoming frequent when such games were activated at MO_AND workshops and labs.
With the desire to re-know (to know anew) what we (don't) know - this plane in which spirituality, nature and ancestry form an undivided whole - the research was anchored in the double valence of the operation of re-mediation: to re-mediate is to gather back together what was disconnected, and it is also to heal, to fix and/or remedy. This double sense appears when we give way to three contemporary unfoldings of the Event/Accident: the body that is crossed (immediate form), the body that crosses (force-affect), and the crossing body (channel). When the three bodies come together in a transversal state, what seemed to be disconnected can re-link again. The healing of re-mediation, so far, has also manifested itself into three modulations: healing through cutting, healing through antidote, and healing through gift.
Proposing to search, in our own body-territories, the spectrum of vibrational frequencies that traverses and constitutes us, the Re-mediation Practices interrogate, through experiencing, the possibility of tuning into the co-participatormultidimensionality of Life, to giving way to its manifestation, and of being there for it, with an active capacity to feel it, honor it, and acknowledge it.
The practices are shared, in individual or collective sessions, through the activation of a circuit that goes from the 'waters of the Earth' - the Lake, the Sea, and the River - to the 'waters of the sky' - the Rains, inviting participants to experience and operate micro-gestures of re-mediation in their own energetic fields.
Three means run through the exercises: the 'means of liberation' - locating and unlocking access keys to build the 'body of crossing'; the 'means of channeling' - exercising oneself as a transpersonal channel and constituting a field for the appearance of the issue to be healed; and the 'means of service' - unblocking possible healings and making available paths for gestures of repair that may, through concretization in the smallest details - little by little - reverberate more vastly.

Ancorar
Flora Mariah
Ancorar is a body research practice focused on investigating more specifically the pelvis, which has been developed by Flora Mariah as an unfolding of the RABA POWER project, in an attempt to organize and deepen all the material raised since 2018. Our hips carry layers and more layers of history, ours and our ancestors that are passed down from generation to generation. It is a historically marginalized zone of the body, which makes us share incarnations of violence and silence. The bet of this research is that through work focused on the pelvis, we can access memories, release tensions and traumas and reconnect with what gives us both mechanical and emotional support. Working on our foundation and understanding its structural connection with the body as a whole gives us the necessary support to support our choices, our directions and our desires in life. Diving into this sea and moving these waters so deep is a movement of self-rescue, but not only is it also part of a collective process of healing and decolonization of our bodies. A dive that requires courage to touch what hurts, what has been hidden from us, or silenced, what we do not know and fear, what we cannot control, and neither name. But it is also with courage that we understand that in the same place where we find our pain, we also find our strength, because it is within the wound itself that we find the wisdom to heal it. Therefore, the practices of ANCORAR are an invitation to open new spaces, anchor powers and release unnecessary tensions, rescuing the pleasure in inhabiting our own body.

Antenna Body
Pat Bergantin
Antenna Body is a corporal practice that approaches the body as a connection device, which has the power to capture, transmit, transduce, modulate and tune. Acting in the field of micro-perceptions, it sharpens the senses for what moves (in) our body here-now, reactivating circuits that previously seemed blocked or erased. In order to move with what trespasses through our bodies, either visible, invisible or unpredictable, it is necessary to tune our channel into the perception of body-field, recognizing that there is no crossing without being crossed and that this path demands a circuit handling. The continuity of the practice leads to an integration of physical, mental and emotional faculties, as well as social, ancestral and spiritual faculties, and is designed for anyone interested in the proposal, regardless of their experience with dance.

Multidimensional Body
Guto Macedo
The proposal of Multidimensional Body is to create body in the intersection of the visible and the invisible, the inside and outside, what touches and is touched in the soma (body of itself), crossing limits between the perceptible and the imperceptible. In this perceptive opening, each one with its own multi-images of body, where time crosses space, the past resonates in the present, and new somatic schemes emerge.

Microscopolitics Dance
Milene Duenha
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.

Practices of Gathering
Mariana Pimentel
Practices of Gathering are an experiment with the poetics of clustering. It activates reciprocity through meditative presence, small dances and the free flow of movement among people. It brings together experiences that invite the collective body to express its presence in the different spaces and layers that compose our corporeality.

Tuning & Inventory Practices
Naiá Delion
The Tuning Practices take as a starting point the relationship between body and gravity and propose to dedicate time to map the body supports on the ground, the supports in the air or in another body, in pause or in movement. It involves accessing bone, muscle, elastic and skin tissues to investigate fractality and multidirectional movement, with the body being able to relate to the imponderable. The Inventory Practices take as a starting point something that has been experienced. The mapping of this experience is tuning from the outside to the inside until it can again include the relationship of the body to the gravitational field. Through the invitation to this singularized inventory, the proposal is that one can open space for an appropriation of the experiences that allows them to be made available as tools for the investigation of each individual.

'Tra(d)ição' Practices ("betrayal-tradition")
Manoela Rangel
Betraying - The one who knows how to suspend what I know about how I move which paths I walk who I think I am a voluntary act of opening a crack in time - I deterritory myself I don't know myself I am movement that takes changing nomadic forms - what moves me is perhaps a false enigma - it matters the continued state of not knowing about what I know about myself following what is being done in this system that I call I - to betray myself and create a new tradition to betray me is to create another tradition which moves me while I rest circuits of the system nervous of the fascia network to be moved not to move >> what moves through me and with me when something in me / moves me - decreases the volume of what I know of agent-self >> increases the volume of other-agent [multiples of /in me?] decreases the volume of desire-object increases the volume of availability-desire and thus I rest.

MO_AND & SITE-SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE
Fernanda Eugenio & Gustavo Ciríaco
City Labs
Cities are as diverse as the layers that constitute them. They never cease to re-emerge, to re-perform before our gaze and to engage us with their imperious and inevitable atmospheres, accidental and shipwrecked, fragile and strong, banal and extraordinary. Alchemies always in process, producing conflicting, albeit osmotic, patterns of dwelling, empirical/sensorial experience, and social (dis)integration. Moreover, resulting from many architectural dreams, from the spurious mixture between utopian fantasies, improvised solutions, power structures and contingent local deviations, cities are both concrete forms and ephemeral territories. In them we live and die, we meet and we part, maintaining the daily fiction that bonds the interstices of the broader panorama of urban phenomena.
City Labs are temporary laboratories for attention, mapping, creation and on-site performance, installed in neighbourhoods and critical peripheries of different cities, chosen for the pertinent link to local political and affective issues. With this itinerant structure, Fernanda Eugenio and Gustavo Ciríaco have travelled, since 2009, through the most diverse urban environments, in South America, the USA, Europe and Asia, collecting a multitude of couplings and arrangements situated amidst urban operations, and researching the performative variability of the city-form.
In this durational collaboration, Fernanda Eugenio's protocols of Ethnography as Situated Performance enter into conversation with the contextual creation procedures that Gustavo Ciríaco employs in the construction of his immersive and relational performances, generating propositions sometimes transferable to other sites, sometimes unrepeatable. These propositions are, in turn, shared in the Site-Specific Practices workshop.
Site-Specific Practices
These workshops, guided by Fernanda Eugenio in collaboration with the contextual artist Gustavo Ciríaco, were created from the experience of the City Labs collaborative project, active since 2009, setting up temporary laboratories of artistic research in public spaces of countries as diverse as Vietnam, the USA or Brazil. Some editions of the workshop also include the transmission and/or re-enactment of excerpts from contextual performances by Gustavo Ciríaco and performance-games of the Re-Programme Series by Fernanda Eugenio.
The focus of the workshop is to practice a set of perceptual propositions to experiment (with) the place and to investigate the performativity of cities. Combining the procedures of Ethnography as Situated Performance with approaches from contextual art, the first part of the work involves an exploratory journey through the geographic and social vicinities of the place that hosts the workshop, an exercise of recognition of the materialities and operations that compose the urban experience and of attention to the minute and the rarefied that give access to the poetic dimension of everyday life.
Using the collected sensitive matter, the participants are then invited to create short in situ performances, individually or in small groups, focusing on the borderline of what is already happening there and the more or less ephemeral contact with an ‘enlarged possible’, playing with the fantasy of what places can be.
Site-Specific Practices are generally offered in one-week workshops and take place in Spring or Summer time in Lisbon, the most appropriate time of the year for spending long periods outdoors. The workshops are also held (inter)nationally, in the context of festivals and artistic residencies comissioned by artistic and cultural structures.

MO_AND & AUTHENTIC MOVEMENT (AM)
Fernanda Eugenio & Soraya Jorge
In this collaborative research project, we focus on the political potential and the urgency of establishing a field of exchange, cohabitation and the creation of cross-procedures between ethical-aesthetic practices and somatic practices.
Practices of Reparagem/Reparation (MO_AND) & Witnessing
From the approximation and conversation between the practice of reparagem/reparation (MO_AND) and the practice of witnessing (AM), we join forces towards the constitution of a set of tactics of self-care and care for the environment. We try that the two practices simultaneously complement each other and function as each other’s 'antibody'. Although formally very distinct, the correspondence between practices is explicit. Both share the same question-affect: the commitment to the refinement of sensitive listening and the constitution of a (micro)political sensibility, through an experiential, relational and situated research.
Authentic Movement(AM) is a somatic relational practice for the development of incarnated/embodied consciousness, called somafulness by Soraya Jorge, responsible for the introduction of this work in Brazil and Portugal, and for a specific approach to this practice and its sharing that amounts to more than twenty years of existence. The basis of the research proposed by the AM is the positional structure mover-witness: it is from the establishment of a relationship of trust and reciprocity between the positions of seeing and being seen that a secure field of forces is created for the contemplation of the body and its states and for the practice of a direct listening of sensations. The (re)connection to the plane of sensation functions as a key to map, move and heal recurrent patterns, reactive tendencies and emotional wounds, from the gradual development of an internal witness: a moving consciousness, able to follow without judging, communicating without accusing and be accountable for the narratives and interpretations that it creates.
The expanded political potential of the combination of AM and MO_AND tools is noteworthy. The combination of tools is shared in different modalities of the collaborative workshops Practices of Reparagem and Witnessing, oriented by Fernanda Eugenio and Soraya Jorge, together and/or in articulation with partners, and also members of this research, Guto Macedo and Naiá Delion. On the one hand, MO_AND contributes to the expansion of the embodied consciousness proposed by AM, in a commitment not only to self-knowledge but also to the engagement and participation in a collective plane. On the other hand, AM calls for the extension, to the plane of ‘individual happening’, of the exercises of fractalizing perception, harbouring accidents and sufficient positioning, proposed by MO_AND.
Employing different resources, both Modus Operandi AND and Authentic Movement investigate, from a field and bodily practice, the modulations between presence and absence, inside and outside, perception and apprehension, affect and partition, focus and distraction, instant and memory, singularity and collectivity, desire and responsibility.
MO_AND + AM workshops begin with one or two days dedicated to the introduction to each of the practices separately. In the following days, some propositions explore ways of combining AM tools - the mover, the witness and field of somafulness in-between - with those of the MO_AND – the ethics of incorporation of accidents, the defragmentation of oneself and the practice of reparagem using the (counter)dispositif of the WHAT-HOW-WHEN-WHERE game.
With variable durations and formats, the workshops adopt different designations, depending on the specific modulation to explore or move at each time.
'Repair and Witness Practices: Modus Operandi AND and Authentic Movement

MO_AND + DANCE & COREOGRAPHY
Fernanda Eugenio & Sílvia Pinto Coelho
Among the many and varied practices we have to place ourselves in a state of active listening, research and creation, this workshop tries to activate as hypothesis the possibility of sensorial isolation, delimiting a temporary zone of attention. The curiosity of perception and the creation of nexuses in an incipient state constitute the focus of the research
To inhabit an already-constituted field involves a process of delicate and re-situated adjustment and engagement in each step of the way. Something like oiling and tuning the machine while we use it: a labour of careful tuning. Sometimes, this process already inhabits us. In this case, the work to be done may be to recognize what is already in progress and to explore, attentively, the generated images and imagination.
Practices of Attention
is the name given by Sílvia Pinto Coelho to a set of propositions that she has been developing from methods of looking at everyday choreography. Within the scope of AND Lab, these practices of attention are aligneg with the practices of attention proposed by Modus Operandi AND, combining different exercises for the inventory of what-is-already-there, in that diffuse zone that we call 'before', looking if and into how we (continue to) begin and researching preparation tactics.
Both Fernanda Eugénio and Sílvia Pinto Coelho investigate different ways of looking at these processes as a decantation dramaturgy: everything 'can' (happen), but between what 'can' (happen) and what actually becomes possible, what is revealed and relevant, both individually and collectively? These workshops usually take place in the context of AND Summer Schools, as preparatory work at the beginning of each day. They are also sometimes offered autonomously.

MO_AND + RADICAL TENDERNESS
Fernanda Eugenio & Dani D'Emilia
The Practices of Dis-Immunisation
come out of the encounter between the politics of co(m)passionment, part of Fernanda Eugenio’s MO-AND ethics, and Radical Tenderness, Dani d'Emilia’s practice in the scope of performance and radical pedagogy. They investigate, within the plane of corporeality, possible paths for the activation of non-hierarchical and disseminated modulations of love and loving, released from pre-defined conformations. Expanding love’s operability also as a 'strangership force', these practices call for an attunement to the improper and unfamiliar, moving beyond the logic of dis/identification and mis/understanding as (the only) basis for engaged relationality.
(Re)claiming affective territories immunised by the mechanisms of indifference and/or identitary foreclosure within capitalist and colonial frames, these practices propose themselves as tools for deep listening, engagement and presencing of one another whilst committing to reciprocal care in the process, creating and holding each body with the courage and frankness involved in a continuous (re)imagining and (re)doing of ourselves, in/through each relation.
This collaboration is anchored in the desire to experiment with embodied relational procedures and political-affective practices for social trans-formation, exploring the fold between the intimate and the political. Creating the conditions for exercising this political practice involves accepting the risk and responsibility of circumscribing zones of temporary intimacy with the unknown and the unknowable, experiencing states of deliberate vulnerability as we explore the variable elasticity of permeability in each encounter. To become dis-immunised to the other (cum, the other; beyond me) and experience the relationship as a gift (munus).
The procedures and experiential propositions created collaboratively by the two artists are periodically shared in the environment of experiential workshops, open to the participation of everyone willing to research the vast - and still to be invented – territory of how we live our relationships and distribute our affections/affects.
The workshops propose each time a different set of emerging practices of contamination-attunement between the politics of co(m)passionment and the politics of radical tenderness, always starting from the corporeal plane to investigate other sensitive dispositions - less dependent on identification and understanding - and ways of creating, frequenting and practicing widespread forms of love.
The exercises proposed in the workshops seek to create an environment of trust, acceptance and frankness, in which care can grow in proportion to the risk. They involve sensorial circuits and performative micro-scripts to be experienced in pairs, trios or small groups, circumscribing temporary zones of intimacy with the unknown and the unknowable and inviting participants to experience (and experiment with) states of deliberate vulnerability and of elastic (im)permeability and (dis)comfort.
The Dis-solution Practices
by Fernanda Eugenio and Dani d'Emilia, are part of the artists' investigation around the elasticity of the capacities for intimate connection with the unknown/unknowable and of possible inroads for the activation of politicized, non-hierarchical and disseminated modulations of love. Attuning with the valences of (dis)solvency as a means of researching possible "outer zones" of the hegemonic regime of solution, the Dis-solution Practices work through intimate/personal matters as portals for attunement with the infra and the transpersonal, proposing psychoSOMAgic rituals as invitations to affectively surrender to the fabric of inseparability, resting in the whole spectrum of sensations until its outside/inside edge (dis)integrates.
Placing the Modus Operandi AND and Radical Tenderness in conversation, this collaboration began in 2018 with the Dis-immunization Practices, focusing on ways of reclaiming the affective territories immunized by mechanisms of closure-protection-indifference characteristic of relationships between humans in a hegemonic colonial-capitalistic framework. With the pandemic and its emergency demand for biological immunization, the conditions of proximity that allowed this work in the affective dis-immunization to alterity were compromised. At the same time, it became more urgent to attune with the broader wisdom of Life itself - composed not only by the intertwining with others named as ‘similar’, but also by the entanglement of each one in/as the body of the Earth, and the unlimited vastness of life beyond and below forms. From this context, in 2020, emerged the Dis-Solution Practices, an attempt to make the 'lack of physical contact' between humans an opening for the collectivization of affect, expanding experiments towards a wider repertoire of relational intimacy that mobilizes radical love with other more-than-human forms of life.
The Re-Fusing Experiment
emerges after a trajectory of inquiry into how to extend our modes and fields of intimacy between and beyond the social body into the wider metabolic relations we are constituted by and ongoingly entangled with. Moved by a yearning - and political necessity - for visceral new forms of response-ability and belonging, we are exploring practices that activate inseparability and help us attune to it as a sensitive experience.
This journey started in 2018, when by bringing Modus Operandi AND in conversation with Radical Tenderness, Fernanda and Dani created the Dis-immunisation Practices. The second phase of this journey gave way to another field of relational procedures, the Dis-solution Practices, through which a series of PsychosSOMAgic Rituals emerged.
Now, with this first experiment, we circunscribe a new field of research synthesized into the operation of 're-fusing' - that merges together the gestures of refusal and re-fuse. This is the most recent unfolding of the research, in which in conversation with Sarah Amsler, we propose to deepen this ongoing work to interrupt our internal inscriptions of systemic relations that perpetuate separability through an even wi(l)der queering of intimacies.
As a more direct movement of putting into conversation the pedagogies of AND Lab and the collective Gesturing Towards Decolonial Futures, this embodied experiment proposes a simple protocol for attending one-to-one relations with more-than-human 'entitings', activating queer relationality modulations that allow exploring-in-act how to co-sense instead of consenting - and so researching ways to reopen and reorient categories and forms (turning 'kinds' into 'kins'), sustaining the question: 'what is it necessary to refuse in order to re-fuse?'
