Roundtable

As part of the event “Lisa Nelson – Dance, a Way of Seeing” (October 8–17, 2026, Paris & Brussels), Contredanse and the Atelier de Paris are dedicating an afternoon to exploring Tuning Scores in various forms: research presentations, archival projects, and digital tools.

The afternoon is devoted to cross-disciplinary presentations of works, research projects, archival materials, and digital tools related to Tuning Scores. It consists of four sections:

Touché & Re.Dancing – Game Room
A presentation of a video game developed by Lisa Nelson, Baptiste Andrien, and Florence Corin (Contredanse) that invites players to explore the temporal plasticity of moving images. An interactive video installation, accessible throughout the day, allows the public to play with video clips and experiment with the principles of Tuning Scores in a digital environment.

Conversations and Archives
Two documentation and research projects are presented: The Tune of Talking: Conversations in Vermont by Myriam Van Imschoot, which explores speech and transmission in Lisa Nelson’s practice, and STORE, an archiving project with Claude Boillet.

TuneZoom
An online observatory bringing together remote participants and guests, streamed live. Inspired by the 2020 lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a group of “Tuners” adopted the social media platform Zoom to explore the Tuning Score.

Legacies and Transmission
This section brings together Replays by Anouk Llaurens and La sensation est l’image by Pascale Gille, Ghislaine Louveau, Nelly Paubel, and Julie Perrin, before opening up to the audience and other artists and researchers to share their relationship with the Tuning Scores.
