Wednesday, November 30, 2022 • Duration 46:21

This podcast revisits and expands on pertinent highlights from the panel discussion and intervention titled ‘Centring and Intersectionality: Black Perspectives in Dance Research’ which was presented at the Centre for Dance Research two-day symposium in November 2021, focusing on inclusion and Intersectionality.

The discussion is facilitated by Dr Mercy Nabirye, Consultant and Creative Producer for African Diaspora Arts and founding Director of Kauma Arts and it brings together Dr Funmi Adewole Elliott, Senior lecturer at DeMontfort University UK, Academic Researcher, Storyteller and dramaturge; and Duane Cyrus, recently appointed Director of the School of Dance at the University of Arizona at Tucson, USA, artist, curator, and founder of Theatre of Movement.

In conversation, they discuss and compare the ongoing struggle for inclusion from their different perspectives, intersectionality, and practice but centring on the idea of creating spaces where a range of black voices can be heard. They explore some of the complexities of understanding Blackness in various broader contexts that impact on African diasporic dance practice and research both locally and globally.

Episode 4: Ethics of dance research in practice

Monday, November 7, 2022 • Duration 44:44

This podcast broadly considers the ethics of dance research and practice, working with dancers who may identify as differently abled, neurodivergent, having a disability. We recognise that the terminology can be both individual and complex. Recognising that the speakers identify as able-bodied researchers, this conversation has a concrete focus on the learning and experience gained by these individuals in a dance research context.

Episode 1: Curating and Producing Dance – with Mercy Nabirye and Angela Conquet. Chair

Monday, September 26, 2022 • Duration 41:30

This insightful discussion brings together Mercy Nabirye, consultant and creative producer for African Diaspora arts and founding Director of Kauma Arts, and Angela Conquet, an independent dance curator, consultant and PhD candidate at the University of Melbourne to explore intersectionality and inclusion within dance production and curatorial practices.

During the symposium Mercy presented an intervention titled ‘Centring and Intersectionality: Black Perspectives in Dance Research ‘ which included contributions from Funmi Adewole and Duane Cyrus (both of whom, along with Mercy participate in another of the podcast in the series). While Angela presented a provocation, ‘Making Dance Present’, in which she explored the problematic dominance of a particular aesthetic within what has been termed ‘contemporary dance’.

Talking together to Jane Carr, Mercy and Angela reveal more of their experiences of producing the work of diasporic artists in the context of the hegemonic values of contemporary dance.They emphasize the need for continuing dialogue in negotiating the complex issues that arise in working to create a more inclusive dance field stressing how we need to be open to the uncomfortable process by which we ‘keep getting it wrong to get it right’.
