Installation Performance: ‘flickering, quivering, pulsing, sharp’

“flickering quivering pulsing sharp” is a live art event designed to bring spectators into relation with the invisible and indeterminate qualities of physical pain. As scientists and scholars share their disciplinary ways of looking at what cannot be seen, spectators make their way through tensions between ways of knowing associated with science and with art. The event is sponsored by the Wisconsin Institute for Discovery and the Department of Theatre and Drama.
