Performative Lecture with the artists-researchers duo Ruth Anderwald & Leonhard GrondThe ongoing artistic research project 'ON DIZZINESS' Proposes the liminal state of dizziness as the suspension of relation, communication and understanding. This lecture-performance by the Viennese-based artists-researchers Ruth Anderwald & Leonhard Grond explicates the concept of dizziness, giving examples from artistic work, moving image art and poetry intermingling it with scientific findings. Their arts-based research defines dizziness as an unpredictable movement, or the sensation of such movement, causing a shift from the given to the uncertain that unbalances individuals, groups, societies, elements, and systems. For living beings, dizziness indicates a situation in which the possibilities of reality can no longer be grasped in the habitual manner of prediction because of a disruption, lack, or overload of input. But this situation offers the potential for change and transformation.

Self-Remembering in the Vertigo of the Fundamental

Sound, growling behind the door, an unknown source of noise, the seduction growing, my whole body anticipating total surrender.

Dizziness: A Feeling of Disorientation

My body felt spongy and disoriented. I no longer had a sense of the size of the room or where anyone was within it, I didn’t know where the walls were, or the distance between my elbow and hip, my chin and the floor.
