Artist Jennet Thomas and composer/performer Simon Bookish present a live show exploring a hybrid, cross-over space between art, film, music, speculative fiction and performance, including a recruitment presentation, songs, film clips, lessons, a quiz and prizes. Performers include Frances Scott, Catherine Thomas and Nikki Tomlinson alongside Jennet Thomas and Simon Bookish.
SCHOOL OF CHANGE is a new franchise of girls' schools, existing in a post-apocalyptic future, so radical it threatens the working of reason itself. SCHOOL OF CHANGE attempts to shore up against this breakdown, to educate a new generation to adapt, building an alternative ‘hive mind’ that has a new, stronger kind of logic.
Each student’s learning is bio-technically monitored and assessed through the Personal Circle lodged inside them. High-scoring pupils perform their learning through a rhythmic song and action practise: ‘the Production’. This trance-like group activity produces small solids - Units of Knowing – the currency through which the new economy tries to function.
The first SCHOOL OF CHANGE open day will take place at Camden Arts Centre on Saturday 17th December 2011. ENROL NOW! Booking here
Jennet Thomas' forthcoming exhibition SCHOOL OF CHANGE will be at Matts Gallery in London in spring 2012.
