Diffractive Rendezvous

This article is an open-ended discussion of five events from the LASER series hosted at Hexagram in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, between 2014 and 2021. LASERs at Hexagram interweave the research-creations of its members in dialogue with local and international guests. Emerging from the audio-to-text transcriptions of previous documentation of these LASERs, the word “movement” becomes a novel lens of analysis for this text, according to a “diffractive” approach. Thoughts and actions afforded by this word produce a surprisingly gentle yet compelling interdisciplinary weave, to inspire future editions.
