Opis

The research project has a starting point: the observation of isolated quantum physicists still working together in teams during their experiments and the question of what is special about the experience the cooperating scientists are making under these conditions. Does something similar exist in art? How do connections arise between the practitioners? And: How does an artistic practice work that influences and attracts other artists and can bring new content into the social sphere? Here the 'body' is used as concept, medium and tool, because it can probe perception and consciousness in such work- and learning processes. Via the body - working in isolation - a bridge can be built between the different isolated ways of working. This bridge is summarized by the term "connection-ship". Methodologically, the study is located in the literature debate and applied research. It shows that the initial conditions of research and the creative process can be distracted from the planned creative process by many aspects and conditions. However, the experience of 'connection' as an incorporated process of being together always remains.
