Navigation workshop
A Navigation workshop is based on the ganzfeld experiment, only rather than sitting still, participants guide each other through spaces or environments moving through space while using ganzfeld goggles, in order to explore how this changes the perception of the spaces and sensory awareness more generally. EQUIPMENT: Smartphone / Headphones/ganzfeld hemispheres [or 2x half ping pong balls] INSTRUCTION: PARTICIPANT A 1. Place hemispheres over eyes and secure with tape. Put the headphones on. Ensure the volume is loud enough to block out ambient noise. 2. Your guide will hold your upper arm and guide you around a space for approximately 5-10min. 3. During this time record a mental map of the journey. INSTRUCTION: PARTICIPANT B 1. Ask the participant to place hemispheres over their eyes. Help secure these with tape. Ask

Seven practical experiments
A manual for self-experimentation and a template for performance / A workshop on perceptual illusion and art. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/seven-practical-experiments-tickets-72221088219 'Seven practical experiments' is a new piece of work for by Antony Hall, developed through an exploration of perceptual illusion, and the methods used in experimental psychology. By taking part in this workshop, you will both 'experience' the work and 'perform' the experiments; in doing so you will become the work. The experiments will be preceded by a session of Feldenkrais led by Teresa Brayshaw. Feldenkrais is a method of enhancing self-awareness through movement and the heightening of bodily perception. Following this activity, you will then be guided through the 'seven practical experiments' and given space to reflect and discuss what you have experienced.
