Co-presented with SITI Company, additional support from the Center for Jewish Studies (GC, CUNY).
The Judaica project is a laboratory for new embodied technique at the crossroads of experimental performance, critical identity politics, and ethnomusicological archives. Funded by the UK Arts and Humanities Research Council to conduct six months of full-time embodied research, the Judaica project has been working with Jewish songs in Hebrew, Yiddish, Ladino, Turkish, Luganda, English, and other languages. The laboratory work draws on performance studies, social epistemology, visual anthropology, de-colonial Jewish studies, and contemporary philosophy to offer new ways of thinking and working with vocality, embodiment, identity, culture, and multimedia. www.urbanresearchtheater.com
SITI Thought Center events focus on research and inspiration for new productions and invite discussion with artists and thinkers working at the intersection of art and global affairs. SITI Thought Center is a crossroads for ideas.
