Time Has Set the Table for Tea: A Matter of Origins Project
Thursday, February 24,
Through conversations with scientists across the globe, from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope to the Large Hadron Collider at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva, Switzerland, company founder, choreographer, and Visiting Assistant Professor of Dance Liz Lerman learned about satellites probing the farthest reaches of the cosmos, and experiments designed to recreate the conditions in the sub-seconds after the Big Bang. Through her lens as an artist, Lerman will share the fascinating results of her research.
This unique experience, specifically designed for Wesleyan, will contemplate our relationship to the essence of matter during a 360-degree performance happening and interactive conversation with Wesleyan faculty, aided by the use of iPads, plus chocolate cake and tea for audience members. By taking the performance work out of the theater and placing in a ballroom space in the heart of the campus, the lines between performance and post-performance conversation/interaction are blurred.
