Compilation of 6 artists selected texts, edition of 100. 2010 AN UNCONSCIOUS ADVENTURE, Casper Daysh, theHub Sara Rodrigues is an interdisciplinary artist working with audiovisual composition and performance, with an immersive research-led practice that appears both as short interventions and long-duration projects. Composing with open structures that often call for participation, her work explores the complex relations of life-making, producing scores that explore varying levels of agency and implications. Looking at the interconnectedness of humans with their ecosystems, both micro and macro, she is interested in the possible forms of affect within the work and effect beyond it.
Fellow of the network ‘Music Composition as Interdisciplinary Practice’, a research-creation network initiated by Tom Armstrong, professor and researcher at Surrey University - Guildford, with funding from the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC). Research and work becoming publicly available at the Post-Graduate Research Unit, Surrey University.
