FIELDSTATION TIME (Inhabiting Time), 16/08/2017, 11h-15h30

EM investigates how to decolonize the experience of time, by exploring concepts related to the notion of ‘inhabiting time’. The project will research and rethink different theories and philosophies of time while experimenting with intuitive, holistic and spiritual experiences that can help us re-connect with inner time.

in “A Temporary Futures Institute”, M HKA, Museum of Modern Art Antwerp, Leuvenstraat 32, 2000 Antwerp

PROGRAM :

– Introduction of the exhibition “A Temporary Futures Institute” by Maya Van Leemput

– Intro “EM” by Filip Van Dingenen

– Re-enactment of the meeting on 6 april 1922 in Paris of Henri Bergson and Albert Einstein. Featuring inner-subjective time versus mechanical clocktime (lecture-performance in English)

“The years that followed their encounter in Paris, can be compared to those of religious wars – with one major difference : instead of debating how to read the bible, thinkers across a wide variety of disciplines debated about how to read the complex unfolding of nature through time”.

Jimena Canales

– Categories on time : A playful collaborative project & integration of the exhibition “A Temporary Futures Institute”

– Lunch

– Time therapy (active meditation)

Admission for the Fieldstation is free, but a fee of 5€ is asked for the exhibition “A Temporary Futures Institute”.
