At Knot Project Space and in relation to their exhibition \u00fean-\u00fean,<\/em> the Confraternity of Neoflagellants (Norman Hogg and Neil Mulholland) conducted a performance of Shift\/Work Speculations, a score-scroll originally composed at Edinburgh Sculpture Workshop to be performed at the Kochi-Muziris Biennale Biennale, India (March 2017), and since performed in Kristiansand (Norway), Malm\u00f6 (Sweden), Edinburgh (Scotland) and Calgary (Canada).<\/span><\/p>\n

SPECULATION is a \u2018gesture that interrupts\u2019 (Biesta 2017, 36); an \u2018irritation\u2019 (Ascott 2003, 145); \u2018a corruption, a rupture of information\u2019 [\u2026] \u2018static, a parasite?\u2019 (Serres and Schehr 2007: 3) The speculative parasite is one that stimulates paragogic play, materialising Shift\/Workers\u2019 learning expectations. In performing each other\u2019s Speculations Shift\/Workshops, Shift\/Workers gain a metacognitive understanding of the speculative processes and challenges of artistic learning.<\/span><\/p>\n

SCROLL-SCORE To blackbox facilitation, Confraternity of Neoflagellants will scaffold play with a scroll-score, a minimal set of prompts that sets the parameters within which Shift\/Workshop design is communally performed. Confraternity of Neoflagellants will be using a set of Speculations Playing Cards as parasites for interference, gestation, regurgitation and problem creation. Speculative materials, probes and props will be drawn directly from the \u00fean-\u00fean<\/em> exhibition.<\/span><\/p>\n

EXEMPLA The Kochi-Muziris scroll-score, cards and three ESW-scores are published as an OER so that they can easily be recalibrated and run by any group of Shift\/Workers. The Ottawa performance – Shift\/Work: [STATIC] Speculations – will constitute a S\/W-CoN conglomerate exempla of the scroll-score.<\/span><\/p>\n

PREPARATION<\/span> It\u2019s very important not to prepare for this mashup workshop as the element of surprise is central to how it stimulates speculative play. The workshop is \u2018flipped\u2019 – Neil will provide access to materials that expand up on Shift\/Work and paragogics once the workshop has finished.

Shift\/Work<\/em><\/strong>

Founded in 2010 by Neil Mulholland and Dan Brown in Edinburgh, Scotland, Shift\/Work (www.shiftwork.org.uk) supports the active peer production of Open Education Resources (OER) for artists. An iterative practice continually re-performed like a musical score, Shift\/Work solicits autopoetic and generative workshop compositions. Shift\/Work is a performative paragogics (Corneli 2011) wherein peers compose and play-test Shift\/Workshops for one another. Shift\/Workers practise a multilateral approach to workshop composition. Groups of paragogues compose a score to be performed by their peers. Composers then switch roles to become players, performing workshop scores composed by their peers. This generates a metacognitive feedback loop that enables the group as a whole to identify, observe, experience and recalibrate their own artistic learning. At SAW on November 9th 2019, the Confraternity of Neoflagellants (Norman Hogg and Neil Mulholland) will conduct a performance of Shift\/Work Speculations, a score-scroll originally composed at Edinburgh Sculpture Workshop to be performed at the Kochi-Muziris Biennale Biennale, India (March 2017). It has since been performed in Kristiansand (Norway), Malm\u00f6 (Sweden), Edinburgh (Scotland) and Calgary (Canada).
