Description:

Reflecting on her livestream performance for Western Front, Autumn Knight was joined by dance artist Justine A. Chambers and curator Pablo de Ocampo for a casual, online talk on and around their individual practices. Starting outside their work from a series of pop culture references and influences, Knight and Chambers discussed the structures of scores and improvisation, how they engage and activate an audience, strategies for self-care, and what impact physically-distanced, online performance is having on their practices. The hour-long conversation concluded with a question and answer period.
