This work was produced within within collective Senselab Event/Exhibition, as part of the SSHRC, Immediations Grant. at the Latrobe Art Institute (Nov 20 - Dec 18), Bendigo. Keane is a co-applicant (Deakin) and part of the Australian hub of the Immediations: Art, Media, Event – 7yr., $2m, SSHRC grant (Canada). The grant has produced numerous outcomes across the 7yrs including a book series, exhibitions, sprint books, participatory performances, workshops, community project, culinary artworks, public discussions, artefacts and archiving activities. This is the final event for the Australian hub at which participants from South America, North America, Canada and Asia will join the Australian participant is activities reflecting the trajectory of the grant activities.Research statement
Background Over the 7year period of the SSHRC grant, there have been hundreds of events (workshops reading groups, exhibitions, performances and publications) focused on ‘research creation’ through the production of minor gestures. The modes of enquiry include Recomposing experienced, Anarchiving and creating Event ecologies (see> https://senselab.ca/wp2/immediations/). All Senselab/Immedaitons events focus on ecologies that enable the conditions for emergence of complexity—in which motivations evolve into ecologies or, as Erin Manning has termed them, their “minor gestures” (Manning 2016: 1). Contribution Keane and Cottrell’s collaborative work demonstrates how minor gestures can emerge from within an event ecology and feed back into the evolving dynamic system. In this case, the work draw attention to the thresholds within and across surfaces. As attention guided from surface to surface, awareness of their inter-connections and characteristics emerge. As with all the Senselab gatherings, the tuning of a field toward differentiation and emergence, through minor gestures, exists in its immediacy. Within the flow this event, we looked for insights at the junctures of technology-technicity and perception-as-action. Significance The Aus, EU and North America hubs (of the grant) generate events such as the exhibition in Bendigo, which marks the culmination of the Senselab/Immediations grant events in Australia. The exhibition also included a launch of the Immediations Anthology (OHP 2019) within the book series produced from the grant. The Senselab and the Immediations grant has generated numerous scholars, PhDs, new academics and cultural producers, who activate alternative conceptualisations regarding what constitute the acquisition and production of knowledge.Publication classification

collaborative, digital imagery, installation and performance in which the elements, materials and ambient effects being composed and decomposed over the duration of the exhibition were framed and accentuated. Through performance and digital imagery, the “minor gesture” contributed to the Senselab event, which was itself constituted by the intersections and self-organisation of minor gestures.Editor/Contributor(s)
