Instructions For Use

Why do we make performance/art? How do we make it? Where do we start? What are we composing with and what are our strategies for approaching composition?

This month poses a series of questions about approaches to composition in the making of performance and art, and puts these questions to leading artists working in different fields.

These questions will be posed and then explored in a variety of different contexts including: live performances, research laboratories, writings, discussions and workshops. This series of events will allow the concerns of artists working in different mediums to be exposed to, examined, challenged, and shared with participants and audiences.

Instructions For Use is a very lively and practical inquiry into how different artists deal with the problem of composition within their chosen art form.
