Happening at ACE Open across two Wednesday evenings, Follow that Feeling is a performance series aiming to address modes of improvisation and experimentation through form and process.

The artists invited to participate in the series span many mediums, from sound art to writing, and have each been given the following prompts: How might we think about improvisation as a subversive tool in a world that prioritises rationality and logic? How might improvisation be a pedagogic strategy, a way of valuing intuitive felt responses to the world? Can improvisation be thought of as a feminist methodology?

The second Follow that Feeling event, subtitled Slip of the Tongue, which is happening at ACE Open on form 6pm ’til 8pm on Wednesday, 10 November, features Dr Francesca Di Ramini, an interdisciplinary artist, writer and performer; Melinda Rackham, an artist and curator who has previously created interactive digital works; Hen Vaughn, an interdisciplinary artist whose interests include walking practices, counter-geographies and nursing rituals woven into live and site-responsive artworks; and Grace Marlow, an artist, poet, arts worker and programmer.

Follow that Feeling: Slip of the Tongue is free to access. For more information, visit the website.
