A charrette is an intensive participatory group that engages a common enquiry. Atelier, Skye was a three-day charrette in May 2016 wherein a group of artists, curators, academic researchers and members of Atlas Arts worked with a series of common research ‘objects’ located in the north of the Isle of Skye (Trotternish, Waternish and Duirinish).
Commissioned by Sonic Acts, Florian Hecker’s A Script Machine for Synthesis (2015) was co-presented by Sonic Acts and Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. This processed performance view is taken from original photography by Pieter Kers | Beeld.nu.
