Performativity, as a bodily practice that produces meaning, functions an analogical and analytical tool that helps to reveal the active, social construction of reality and the techniques by which individual behaviour is determined by the context in which it occurs (and vice versa).
Subsequently, performative methodologies are used to explore the performative and staged context of social behaviour. Students are challenged to physicalise and [re]enact their research into the phenomenology of orientation. This conceptual apparatus in [dis]orientation and the use of [re]- orientation strategies will function within this scheme as a force with the potential to destabilise organisational principles and logic and to disrupt patterns in the cultural politics of movement and gesture.
