As part of their 2-week research lab CRUTCH CAMP, Prof Claire Cunningham, along with invited artists Tanja Erhart and Laila White will reflect on and demonstrate some of their insights from this stage of Cunningham’s study of Crip Technique.  Focused specifically on movement vocabularies developed through dancing with crutches they have been looking at aspects including individual and collective vocabularies/pathways, lineages, relationship to equipment and tools, and the articulation, documenting and transmission of Crip and disabled knowledge.

The session will be hosted by Juno Mahla, in their work with the Crip, Choreo, Care team on practices of documenting and archiving, and will include conversation, live demonstration and possibly screening of video footage.
