Dissident structures are examined within virtual and architectural spaces. The question is whether the extensions of those spaces are relating to the body? Do they serve as mirrors or can they be turned into virtual reflective and poetic expressions? Do they break the mirror with concrete physical performative actions and exhibitions?

Paul Hendrikse The Particular Unity of Same and Other
´The Particular Unity of Same and Other´ is a performance developed in Jogjakarta, Indonesia. Paul Hendrikse researched how encounters with ”others” by trade, war and during periods of colonization gave specific input upon the Indonesian culture and, more specifically, on the body. He studied how dance and martial arts use these foreign influences. By mimicking and adopting animal behavior and movements of ´strangers´ the Indonesians annexed these movements and turned them into defending strategies, creating a creole body-culture.
