The Word Body Laboratory activates listening to the intensities of affection while the body moves and writes simultaneously, while dancing and speaking, while moving and reading at the same time. Decipher sensations, produce and displace senses while practicing body-writing and body-speech in the transitory aspects of attention.
Creating intimacy with the micro-movements of the body's internal spaces and interconnectedness with external spaces promotes an inauguration of paths in ways of thinking and moving.
The construction of presence is a journey that involves encounters and affections. The relations between writing-body and speech-body are called to a becoming-fall, making the preservation of pre-established and codified forms between reason and sensation, between body and thought vulnerable; mobilizing a writing integrated to the vital flow of the moving body, opening up to the creation of other connections with thought.
The methodology has been developed by artist Aline Bernardi during a research that began in 2012 with the Corpo Palavra seminars at Faculdade Angel Vianna, in Rio de Janeiro, unleashed during intensive training in performance and in the Artistic Investigation program at CEM (Centro in Movement in Lisbon/Portugal); in the Post-Graduation in Body Preparation for the Performing Arts at Faculdade Angel Vianna PCA/FAV; and in the Master`s Dance / PPGDAN UFRJ.
