Anxiety is altogether different from fear and similar concepts that refer to something definite, whereas anxiety is freedom’s actuality as the possibility of possibility. Anxiety may be compared with dizziness.
Recordings of the one-day symposium at the Westminster University held together with the exhibition of Catherine Yass’s film works in Ambika P3, London.
Having a body is a prerequisite for the experience of dizziness – without a body, no experience of dizziness, as dizziness happens within the body and to the body.
Presentation and discussion with the editors of the book 'Diziness–A Resource,' Ruth Anderwald, Karoline Feyertag and Leonhard Grond and their guests: Sarah Kolb, Katrin Bucher Trantow.
This workshop will elucidate how dizziness breaks up the given, be it habits, beliefs, preconceptions or patterns, creating space and dynamics between established categories and perceived oppositions. In this sense dizziness provides power and dynamics to restructure, to rethink, to redesign the given.
The workshop will shed new light on disorientation and on how film artists throughout history use (optical) disorientation and confusion as a paradigm in their work. What can be gained by losing one’s grip, by simply letting go? What pictures arise with dizziness?
