STUDIO DIANE GIRAUD

In Limen situations are structured around two Acts:

ACT I: ART EXPERIENCE
To open emotionally the guest. Be it a dance performance, a visual installation, an art piece.
ACT II: CONVERSATION
To create meaningful connections. Enabled by a playful protocol on a curated topic.

In Limen has developed experiences for 2 types of format:

LES ÉDITIONS LONGUES (Memory, Death, Intimacy, Normality, Consciousness)
Each Act can be up to one hour
LES ÉDITIONS COURTES (the series ‘This Is Not A Magritte Performance’)
Each Act is of 20 minutes

LES ÉDITIONS LONGUES

This format allows for the acts to be long duration - up to one hour each.

Fundamental human questions at the intersection of Art, Philosophy and Science are setting themes for each experience including:

MEMORY: Are we inheriting of our Ancestors’ personal histories?
DEATH: Why Sadness in the face of Death?
NORMALITY: Is there a healthy imperative into defining Normality? 
INTIMACY: How the Society of the Digital irreversibly impacted genuine human interaction?
CONSCIOUSNESS: Will Artificial Intelligence defeat the notion of Humanity?

MEMORY: Are we inheriting of our Ancestors’ personal histories?
