"Maybe theory is biography, presenting it is a lecture, and doing a lecture is performing.
Thank you for your attention. I'd be glad to answer any questions you might have."
(Xavier Le Roy)
Lecture performances have become a popular artistic format in recent years. Even though formally quite limited they offer unique and complex possibilites and challenges: Lecture as performance, reflection as self reflection, content as form, language as action. This blog accompanies the series of lecture performances, organized by Unfriendly Takeover in Frankfurt. Please feel free to post comments, critique, essays, bibliographies or just short remarks around the genre of lecture performances. As an continuing, ever changing definition in progress.
