ABOUT NEUROLIVE

	NEUROLIVE IS AN INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH COLLABORATION THAT BRINGS ARTISTS, SCIENTISTS AND AUDIENCES TOGETHER TO STUDY WHAT MAKES LIVE EXPERIENCES SPECIAL.



























Liveness is vital to dance, theatre and music performances – and to many other kinds of events, including political rallies, sports events, and university lectures – but what exactly sets live experiences apart from recorded, streamed or simulated ones?

NEUROLIVE is an interdisciplinary research collaboration, supported by a two-million-euro grant from the European Research Council between 2020 and 2025. Over the five years of the project, NEUROLIVE commissioned and staged four fully-produced dance performances that were both artistic and neuroscientific investigations of liveness, each time focussing on distinct artistic perspectives and addressing different aspects of making and experiencing live dance. Alongside the four live performances, the project’s research programme is completed by five workshops, a series of follow-up lab-based experiments, and two liveness symposia.

NEUROLIVE’s approach to investigating and interrelating different ways of practicing, conceptualising and measuring liveness is intrinsically interdisciplinary. It combines practices of artistic research and performance making, theories from dance, theatre and performance studies, cognitive neuroscience, experimental design and mobile neuroimaging. Throughout the project, artists and scientists have worked collaboratively while at the same time working to maintain the full distinctness of their artistic and scientific practices. Artistic research helped to shape the experimental design of psychological studies in the lab, while scientific principles and methods fed into the making of dance and choreography in the studio.

Our research highlights how multilayered and sophisticated performers’ and audiences’ practices of liveness can be, and shows that aspects of the experience of liveness are quantifiable as behavioural, psychophysiological and neural entanglement between performers’ and spectators’ minds, brains and bodies.
The NEUROLIVE programme of artistic and scientific research activities are documented on the Performances, Workshops and Events pages on this site. New publications from this research are forthcoming and will continue to be added to the Publications page.

Our heartfelt thanks to everyone who has been part of NEUROLIVE - as audience members, research participants, collaborating artists and scientists, our fantastic partner organisations and funders, and the wonderful NEUROLIVE team ♥️

In this NEUROLIVE Salon, artist Jo Fong shared thoughts and questions about liveness in relation to Ways of Being Together — an ongoing series of workshops, conversations and performances centred around the idea of Belonging. Its most recent iteration was a shared two-week residency at Artsadmin’s Toynbee Studios. Jo, and artists participating in the residency, were in conversation with Matthias Sperling and Guido Orgs.

NEUROLIVE Salons are an occasional series of conversations exploring artistic questions and perspectives around the 5-year NEUROLIVE research project. Each Salon invites one or more guest artists to open up conversations on different ways of understanding liveness and its investigation, and welcomes anyone interested in the artistic aspects of the NEUROLIVE project to attend and join the conversation.

2-4.06.2025LIVENESS SYMPOSIUM II
	NEUROLIVE celebrated and concluded its 5-year interdisciplinary investigation of liveness with a 3-day symposium that took place at Siobhan Davies Studios from 2-4 June 2025.
‘What are you working on?!Have you found anything yet?! What have we done?!’
– Seke Chimutengwende and Steph McMann, words spoken in NEUROLIVE Performance 1: Detective Work

Using these questions that were spoken in Performance 1 to playfully frame the different sessions, the symposium brought together contributors from a range of fields for a programme of discussions and presentations, all reflecting on the themes and methods of the NEUROLIVE project.

The team of scientists and artists who have been part of NEUROLIVE shared findings and reflections on the research, alongside invited guests from the fields of cognitive neuroscience, theatre and performance studies, dance studies and artistic practice who hosted discussions focusing on different aspects of the project. We were delighted to be joined by guests including Maaike Bleeker, Efrosini Protopapa, Beatriz Calvo Merino, Scott Delahunta, Annie Pui Ling Lok, Kat Bridge and Siobhan Davies.

The symposium formed part of the series of closing public events of the NEUROLIVE project, which also comprised a 5-day series of artistic research workshops, and a lecture performance.

	08.2021LIVENESS WORKSHOP I
The first workshop of the Neurolive project took place from 2-6 August 2021 at Siobhan Davies Studios (London). This workshop week offered the first opportunity for the Neurolive research team to gather and work together in person. We invited a number of other artists and scientists who had already begun a dialogue with the project around the Liveness Symposium (in March 2021, online) to participate in the week.

Over varying parts of the week, the participants were:
Annie Pui Ling Lok (Artist &#38;amp; Co-Artistic Director, Siobhan Davies Studios)
Anushiye Yarnell (Artist)
Daniel Richardson (Neurolive Co-investigator)
Fernanda Muñoz-Newsome (Artist)
Friendred Youhong Peng (PhD Researcher, Goldsmiths)
Guido Orgs (Neurolive Principal Investigator &#38;amp; Scientific Director)
Hennie Lee (Neurolive Research Assistant)
Iris Chan (Artist &#38;amp; Neurolive Artistic Stream Producer)
Jamie Ward (Neurolive Co-investigator)
Kat Bridge (Producer &#38;amp; Co-Artistic Director, Siobhan Davies Studios)
Katye Coe (Artist)
Laila Diallo (Artist)
Laura Rai (Neurolive Postdoctoral Researcher)
Matthias Sperling (Neurolive Co-investigator &#38;amp; Artistic Director)
Merritt Millman (PhD Researcher, Goldsmiths)
Siobhan Davies (Founder, Siobhan Davies Studios)

The focus of the workshop was to further develop questions and enrich conversations that began around the Liveness Symposium, and to germinate a range of potential specific scientific or artistic investigations of physical and social liveness.

Each day began with movement sessions facilitated by Katye Coe. Throughout the day artists and scientists alike introduced their practices in presentations, conversations, movement-based explorations and going for walks. 

The workshop was documented by photographer Camilla Greenwell.

&#38;nbsp;

The one-week workshop gathered together a small interdisciplinary group of people in a studio space to investigate liveness from several different artistic perspectives, and to explore how those perspectives could help inform what the Neurolive project does and how it does it. Over the course of the week, different artistic and scientific contributors led sessions sharing their individual interests and current practices with each other, through a combination of discussion and shared movement practice. 

 Parts of the week focused on allowing the group to get to know more about Jo Fong’s performance-making practice and creating a shared dialogue around the beginning stages of her process of creating her commission for Neurolive Performance 2 (titled How Shall We Begin Again?, performed at Siobhan Davies Studios in November 2022). One afternoon of the week was offered as an Open Studio Session led by Jo Fong, that people not otherwise participating in the workshop week were invited to attend. Thirteen guests joined the existing interdisciplinary group for this session, to take part in an experience of Jo Fong’s approaches to practicing liveness in her work. 
&#38;nbsp;


Following the week, Matthias Sperling gathered a sampling of thoughts and questions that were voiced by different workshop participants over the course of the week. 

&#38;nbsp;
A quick poem-portrait of Neurolive Workshop 2 from my notes:

Activism as being in the moment, and being in the moment as activism. 
Watching the movement, or watching the person? 
Liveness as being with this person. 
What does the brain state of ‘being your fullest self’ look like? 
The art of becoming committed in performance. 
The hum. 
Feedback loops between outside-in and inside-out, between action and feeling. 
Liveness as protest. 
Archival body. 
Right now is the past and the past is right now. 
Let’s pretend that… 
Non-performing performing. 
How much of yourself/ your emotions to share with others in performance? 
In liveness, we’re out of our minds. 
The inseparable relationship between liveness and lifelessness. 
Liveness as surrender? 
Is liveness about reclaiming humanity? 
Kinship. 
Liveness and bias. 
Highlighting the work that the audience is doing: filling in the gaps. 
Liveness: porosity: consent: power: penetration. 
Holding multiple possibilities for the definition of success in an encounter/ in liveness. 
Caring for the risk of experiencing the unknown. 
You are already in contact, even before the physical touch happens. 
Asking the audience what liveness is to them. 
The questionnaire as an artwork - choreographing/ crafting the experience. 
How to stay connected to the caring part of the work, when experiencing the questionnaire? 
Is there a non-judgemental vocabulary for the questionnaires? 
What is the artistic work actually working on? Tuning the investigation in to that. 
What are the dimensions of people’s experience when they are experiencing this work? 
Nuance. 
The process has to be co-created in order to be done well. 
We’re here to appreciate people, humanity. 
 
(Matthias Sperling, 14/6/22)

	27-31.05.2025LIVENESS WORKSHOP IV
A series of public workshops with NEUROLIVE artists sharing
their artistic research.







Taking place from 27-31 May 2025 at Siobhan Davies Studios, Workshop
4 was a 5-day series of public workshops that offered an opportunity to
experience the processes behind the artistic investigations of liveness that
contributed to the NEUROLIVE&#38;nbsp;project. Each day shared the artistic
research of a different NEUROLIVE commission, and was led by different artists
closely involved in that particular work. 



The workshops offered the lead artists an opportunity to reflect back on the research they each brought to NEUROLIVE, and also facilitated exchanges between different NEUROLIVE artists participating in one another’s workshop days, interwoven with contributions from the scientific team.




Workshop schedule:
Tuesday 27 May,
11:00-17:30
How Shall We Begin Again?



Initiated by artist&#38;nbsp;Jo Fong, How
Shall We Begin Again? took the form of a two-day live installation, created
and performed by fifty people in 2022. 



On this first day of the workshop week, participants met each other through moving, listening,
recalling and embodying the creative process of How Shall We Begin Again?&#38;nbsp;Jo describes this performance
as ‘between portraiture, protest and something like a prayer. On its simplest
level it’s about how we reconnect with ourselves, our bodies and each other’.
This workshop day was led by
artists Elina Akhmetova and Jay
Yule, who were part of the
core artistic team of How
Shall We Begin Again?, with
workshop plans developed in conversation with Jo Fong.




Wednesday 28 May,
11:00-17:30
Detective Work



Choreographer Seke Chimutengwende&#38;nbsp;and collaborator Stephanie McMann led participants through some of the
processes and material from their 2021 show Detective Work, looking at
choreography as a process of creating and solving mysteries. Thinking about
liveness as a way of investigating the present, participants worked with movement, text, improvisation and set
material in order to find their own ways of unravelling the
mystery of the creative process.




Thursday 29 May,
11:00-17:30
Performing and Not Performing, performed by Jia-Yu Corti



A collaboration
with choreographer and performer Jia-Yu Corti, the performance-experiment Performing
and Not Performing, performed by Jia-Yu Corti was presented at Goldsmiths
University in 2023. This artistic and scientific work playfully investigated a
spectrum of states between performing and not performing - both in terms of how
performers generate these states and how audiences perceive them. 



This workshop day
shared this work’s exploration
of ways of modulating ‘being oneself’ while being witnessed as a performer.
Freeing from predetermined movement or action to guide the performance mode, participants
worked to discern and connect the
habitual and the intuitive, observing how their own live practice unfolded. This workshop practiced
total immersion into the present, into the doing, into trust. The day
was led by Jia-Yu Corti with
contributions from scientific and artistic collaborators Albane
Arthuis, Guido Orgs and Matthias Sperling.




Friday 30 May,
11:00-17:30
~ snakeskin in the wild ~



Created by Dog Kennel Hill Project in 2023, ~ snakeskin in the wild ~&#38;nbsp; brought a combination of formalism and anarchy to
the examination of liveness and the aesthetics of science. 



This workshop day
invited participants to engage with key artistic and scientific approaches from
the project, working with materials such as slime and wooden rods to
investigate their role in practice and performance. Through hands-on
experimentation, participants examined how scientific and artistic processes
were deeply intertwined in the work, tackling the challenge of measuring
liveness—not in the controlled environment of a lab, but in the unpredictable,
wild context of a theatrical performance event. Led by Dog Kennel Hill Project
artists Ben Ash, Heni Hale and Rachel Lopez de la Nieta, this workshop offered a unique opportunity
to delve into these ideas through practice and discussion.




Saturday 31 May,
11:00-17:30
Readings of what was never written 



Created by Matthias Sperling in
collaboration with Temitope Ajose, Ben Ash, Iris Yi Po Chan and Katye Coe, Readings
of what was never written was performed in 2024. 



This workshop day
explored choreographic materials from this work that approach dancing as a
process of ‘taking a reading’ - intuitively interpreting our moment-to-moment
embodied experience. The ways that this work brings together dance, science and
science fiction opened up an exploration of embodied ways of knowing as an
intrinsic part of live dance experiences, attending to how – for performers and
audience members alike – this can span a generative meshwork of our bodily
capacities for knowing that are variously ‘scientific’ (rational, languaged,
explicit) and ‘magical’ (more-than-rational, felt sense, intuitive). This
workshop was led by choreographer Matthias Sperling and collaborating performer&#38;nbsp;Katye Coe, with live
sound designer Joel Cahen.
