Performance Matters – Potentials of Performance – Minimum-being

Notes

British Library Sound Archive recording and documentation of Potentials of Performance events (26-27 October 2012). This third themed year of the Performance Matters project features a vibrant series of commissions exploring and exploding the dialogue as a potential format for thinking through and testing possible futures. These two sessions of Minimum-being take the form of a pop-up talk show in collaboration with The People Speak, on the experience of time, labour, value and wage.
