Conference for Sheep

Conférence for Sheep was produced for the event Les rencontres.org. The performance consists of a lecture that begins with a long, detailed and illustrated description of the latest robots used in automated animal farms, from fertilization to slaughter.

The lecture is aimed at an audience of humans and sheep. I'm sitting in a field with a dozen sheep, who can follow the lecture. I then invite participants to meditate while observing or stroking a sheep.

This event is part of Modulation en Zone Pavillonnaire at Ferme du Faï, Gorges du Gouravour and Faï France in July 2017. The project was born from the meeting of the artists who initiated pointorg, linking the practices of radio and streaming, sensitivity to natural landscapes and atypical, unformatted contexts.
