Per una sociologia della danza: Chthulucene di Jiabao Li

At the centre of the reflection will be Chthulucene, a work conceived and directed by Jiabao Li -researcher who studies the intersections of art, technology and biology-, choreographed by Mareva Minerbi, Sheenru Yong and Theo Steinman to music by Lu Wang dk. It is inspired by the thought of Donna J. Haraway, in particular by Staying with the Trouble-Making Kin in the Chthulucene , published in 2016. The choreography reflects on the level of imaginative production the theories developed by the philosopher of science. Li’s work consists of an aesthetic mirroring of the ideas of an author who, in turn, has made «fiction» both a medium for knowledge production -the latter not considered as the exclusive achievement of the sciences authorised to produce truth- and an instrument of political practice.
