\nI am asking you to write, performance artists, because to me writing is an act of freedom- Drilling rocks and crossing oceans, words exist to remember and resist. To create, reclaim and renew. (Francesca Carol Rolla, Letters from Formentera)<\/cite><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Dear tech-readers, if there\u2019s anything taught to us by the technology Myth is that we can never stay still: a PDF file would soon demand for a flippbuilder, the flippbuilder would soon ask for a fan page, the fan page would immediately claim for a new online plataform, and here we are. So we have the immense pleasure of introducing, in this race against -or better said- in this race in favor of time, the second number of Lo\u00efe. Magazine of Dance, Performance and New Media, now in its new web format. For the restless readers in archipelago style who preffer a scattered and a la carte reading,www.lo\u00efe.com.ar is the ideal movement space where they will not only find the texts of the current issue to be read individually, but also the texts from the previous issues; but we have not forgotten the most tradicionalist readers, the ones in Continental style, the lovers of a more secquential reading, and faithful of the printed book: for them, the button \u201cLOIE Magazine.\u201d is the place where they can find the complete current issue.<\/p>\n
Thus, while we inaugurate this new format, issue\u00a0 N\u00b02 of Lo\u00efe. wants to remind you of the importance of writing. Like Francesca, one of our beloved and most active authors says in the excerpt that we propose as epigraph: writing is an act of freedom, it exists to remember and to resist, create, claim, and renew.<\/p>\n
We are sharing an unpublished letters exchange between different imaginary artists and curators in which new ways of creating are proposed, like the case of Francesca herself, in the text that you will find in the magazine, Letters from Formentera: \u201cI therefore thought it might exist a yet unexplored way of writing. To leave traces of a word pronounced for a different image of the real\u201d, and also in Verena Stenke\u2019s article, where performance practices are interrogated: \u201cWho believes that our bodies do not end where our skin is, that movement does not stop where the body is, and that being does not stop where the mindis \u2013 just like you\u201d.In the \u201cProjects\u201d section, Blas Payri, an academic in Audio-visual Communication at Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Val\u00e8ncia (Spain), revisits Francis Bacon throughout his screendance pieces, and puts into play in the process the notion of temporality. Or, like in the interview by Majo Rub\u00edn to Ingrid Nachstern, a multimedia artist who works in film as a rhythmic poetry of image and sound, resisting with her labour on screen about gender issues. Beyond all this, we are proud to count on the participation of Simon Fildes who, in \u201cdiary of a journey\u201d mode, shares with us his experiences in different festivals where he took part as a guest. The great quantity and variety of critics that shape this issue claim from the art works their paths of meaning and communicate them in these pages. And in Letters from My Window -a column that we hope will turn into a classic- our beloved and admired Oscar Traversa writes dance as an act of freedom he persistence of Salome, a noticeable case of the historical process of mediatisation. In this second letter, the soap opera: dance in relationship with desire: dance in relationship with death and politics.<\/p>\n
Also, please allow us in this issue to suggest the reading of Universo Bali (Bali Universe), a flawless and marvellously edited book about the trajectory of the great Argentinean artist Margarita Bali who, over the years, as succeeded n gathering worlds to create, finally, her own universe.<\/p>\n
Finally, as tech-readers, we want to invite you o click on the links that pop up as recurrent motifs on the textual surface. Most of them are portals which allow Lo\u00efe. To expand towards personal or professional contexts of the authors, towards other ways of exchange and knowledge, towards the experience of other languages; some of them\u00a0 even offer intertexts imagined by the authors at propose different ways through where to travel a work of art, or a text. May Lo\u00efe. be able to effectively expand in that sense also depends upon the curiosity of its readers; from our virtuality we commit ourselves to make that ramification a game each time more attractive.<\/p>\n
So, with the writing, with dance and technology, let\u2019s remember, resist, create, reclaim, renew always as small acts of freedom.<\/p>\n
Welcome, again, to Lo\u00eee.!<\/p>\n
