Overview
Architecture, film and dance all jostle for space underneath the ‘creative’ umbrella but rarely do they hold hands or play footsies. That was before cultural aphrodisiac SEAM 2009: Spatial Phrases entered the playing field and transformed Sydney’s arts and design scene into a commune of free love. A partnership between Critical Path and the University of Technology, Sydney’s Centre for Contemporary Design Practice, this inaugural event unites the ideologies of choreographers, architects, filmmakers and theorists in a glorious jamboree of creative merriment. Descending upon multiple venues across the city, SEAM 2009 includes a three-day Symposium, workshops, performances and commissioned installations all exploring ideas of movement across bodies and space.
Internationally renowned philosopher, cultural theorist and social critic Brian Massumi will inspire audiences as one of the keynote speakers at the Symposia. Massumi is joined by Erin Manning, Andrew Benjamin and Pia Ednie-Brown in a stellar line-up of grey-matter hogs that will lure you into the gaps, the ‘seams’ between these creative fields, where new dialogues and shifting sands are the order of the day.
