ABOUT THIS SITE >>> This site is a blog as well as an archive. It gives visibility to the continues working of radical_hope, its current move to radical_house, the research project Distraction As Discipline (2016 - 2019) and the process of OTÇOE - works for passers-by, a working trajectory (2013 and 2014).
radical_house is a long term project and has a threefold nature: it presents a physical place, a framework and a logic. When in 2013 teaching and mentoring became an extension of Langsdorf's artistic practices now radical_house stems from her pedagogical experience where 'being in dialogue' with others is her main principle.
Distraction As Discipline is
an investigation into enactivist principles in art and education
(research trajectory at KASK School
of Arts Ghent 2016-19). It considers the potential of performance art and
pedagogy in general, in resisting the current and massive
desubjectivation, by critically reclaiming both, attention for the moment and participation in a process.
OTÇOE - works for passers-by was the development of radical_hope's artistic practice in the city and questioned how and by whom this practice (and its bodily, social and economical aspects) is perceived. The title refers to the public of a city and to how we encounter and register most things on our way through the city: Out of The Corner of Our Eyes. OTÇOE.

... Through Practices - a three day practice space
28/29/30 Oct 2019
… THROUGH PRACTICES
is a research environment hosted by a group of artists, inviting you to meet a selection of their practices.
The schedule of this three-day gathering allows you to indulge into a selection of artistic protocols for doing and scores for conversation and reflection.
The goal is to present artistic practices in such a way that they could be acknowledged as practices of research.
We gather at KASK - school of arts HOGENT and welcome you to explore the relationship between artistic practices and research.
Artistic practitioners perform personal working practices, adapted for this occasion, so that you can witness them or even join in.
In doing so they 'show' how it is possible to think ... through practices.
*** Soon more details and directions on how to take part, pass-by, inscribe etc. ***
With Bilal Kamilla Arnout, Alex Arteaga, Klaas Devos, Laetitia Gendre, Heike Langsdorf, Anouk Llaurens, Irene Lehmann, Lilia Mestre, Miriam Rohde and Fransien van der Putt.
[… Through Practices will figure as part of Langsdorf’s closure of the research trajectory Distraction as Discipline (2016 - 2019 Langsdorf & Luyten) and at the same time as the beginning of a new proposition for artistic research (2019 - 2022 Langsdorf & Arteaga) at KASK - school of arts HOGENT.]
