Activating the Living Atlas by Motion
Nabuurs&VanDoorn return to Lisbon with a kinetic activation of Minor Modes of Multiple Muted Memories, where color-coded protocols unfold through movement across the city’s overlooked topographies. Interpreted by breakdancer Timo Paris, these gestures transform public space into a living atlas—part score, part spell, part site-specific choreography.

The Living Atlas: Mapping Memory, Movement, and the City Beneath the Grid
Currently nomadic, we explore how movement, memory, and public space entangle—through mapping and storytelling in Lisbon. A blackout reminded us of our digital dependence. We return to paper, walking, marking, tracing lived experience. What we map is not place but perception. A line through Lisbon becomes a Living Atlas—forty points, two questions, many echoes. A quiet rupture becomes an invitation to grow new eyes.

Archival Echoes
Spontaneously we joined a workshop with Nkisi at the top floor of our residency at Hangar Lisbon. The workshop is part of ‘On the Wolf’s Trail’ a Research Program curated by Margarida Mendes. Nkisi merges music, performance and research in ancient musical technologies and invites participants to dance with the invisible to activate embodied forms of revolution and resistance for the unmaking and making of worlds.
