    Transmission - collaboration with wei zen ho

    Through the concept of 'Transmission' WeiZen and Joshua draw on stories, experiences and imagination on how ceremonies from traditional societies set up space as a way of accessing their sensitivities. In this sense their practice is both historical and contemporary where the challenge they face is whether the power of ritual is possible in the code of contemporary performance architecture and can this exist within the space of these two forms. 


    ‘Transmission’ investigates the body as a walking archive(albeit scrambled) and transmittable medium that can help observe and understand the phenomena that occur when uncovering artefacts and information of the fragmented past, present and future. The idea was excited by the notion of the body having the capacity to transmit information from historical events that may have taken place on a site (site-to-body). The body is also a receptacle for stories or messages that entities with non-physical human form may pass on (entities-to-body)


    During this five day ritual, selected participants were invited to witness the process of 'Transmission' over the period of the week. Participants were selected through a call out on the Critical Path website to participate during this five day ritual.
