Between 8 June 2016 \u2013 and 5 July 2018, the complete score was performed in its entirety 28 times (as phases of the moon) as part of the &#8220;Probability Praxis Series,&#8221; with the help of spontaneous INTERLOCUTORS (volunteer performers) in each location who played a role in linking HYENAZ with the specific site and community context of each performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was also performed in many more iterations, both in person and online, as partial and micro offerings up and through the final iteration as an online event at the beginning of the corona pandemic in 2020. Critical Magic challenges how bodies enter and interact within the performance space and the binary relationship between performer and consumer. Each show&#8217;s location was conceptually mapped together with the interlocutors ahead of the show, and each show was reflected upon through a process of writing and feedback after the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following the score together, each show revealed the challenges and joys of being together in a room, accessing consent from strangers and near strangers, and how to collectively build up energy. As a marvellous and messy organizing of bodies, positionalities and perspectives, it was always a new performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/hyenaz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Credit_Strangelove3_June2017-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-75698\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hyenaz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Credit_Strangelove3_June2017-1.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.hyenaz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Credit_Strangelove3_June2017-1-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Eva Donckers &#8211; Strangelove Festival Antwerp &#8211; 2017<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Critical Magic \ube44\ud3c9 \uc801 \ub9c8\uc220 emerged from a site specific performance called \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=SOAkEII1EO8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Spectral Rite<\/a>\u201d (2014) commissioned by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmca.go.kr\/eng\/exhibitions\/exhibitionsDetail.do?menuId=1020000000&amp;exhId=201408060000101\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art<\/a> (MMCA), Seoul with HYENAZ working under the direction of Korean artist <a href=\"http:\/\/sylbeekim.net\/Spectral.html\"><u>Sylbee Kim<\/u><\/a>. In this performance HYENAZ led a procession through the gallery environment, traversing its exhibits, and engaging its public. HYENAZ invoked a ritual to mourn a industrial accident during the construction of the gallery that had been suppressed in public memory and which had left many workers dead and injured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since this initial performance Critical Magic \ube44\ud3c9 \uc801 \ub9c8\uc220 has evolved into a uniquely interactive performance that integrates electronic music, chaos magic, performance art, digital media, and interactive play; a moment outside of the everyday where HYENAZ blur distinctions between audience\/performer and concert\/interactive ritual. Critical Magic \ube44\ud3c9 \uc801 \ub9c8\uc220 walks the fine line between theatrical performance piece and sonic concert, critical theory and pop sensibility, bringing its audience into a liminal space of discovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The styling for Critical Magic was designed by Yeorg Kronnagel (makeup design, styling and accessories) and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.exitberlin.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Juan Chami\u00e9 at House of EXIT<\/a> (costumes). Critical Magic was mixed by HYENAZ and Bart\u0142omiej Ku\u017aniak, with high definition mastering by Bart\u0142omiej Ku\u017aniak at studio333. We are grateful to Quecke Autonomous Feminist Community for providing the space to conceive the Spectral Rite performance and record the Critical Magic album.
