*Critical Response Process is a method for giving and getting feedback on work in progress, originally developed by choreographer Liz Lerman. Through the supportive and horizontal structure of its four core steps, CRP combines the power of questions with the focus and challenge of informed dialogue. It's designed to leave the maker eager and motivated to get back to work. CRP offers makers an active role in the critique of their own work. It gives makers a way to rehearse the connections they seek when art meets its audience or a work meets its purpose. In use for over 25 years, Critical Response Process has been embraced by art makers, educators, scientists, and theatre companies, dance departments, orchestras, laboratories, conservatories, museums, corporations, and kindergartens. CRP instills ways of thinking, communicating and being that enhance all kinds of interactions, from community dialogue, to artistic collaboration, to family conversations.
**Hope Tucker transforms what we know as a daily form of terse, text-driven narrative through The Obituary Project, a compendium of moving image that gives new life to the antiquated documentary practice of salvage ethnography. Over the past twenty years, she has animated cyanotypes of downwinders and instructions for making fishing nets by hand; photographed shuttered bread factories, fallen witness trees, and contested civil rights era landmarks; recorded mobile phone footage of the last public phone booths of Finland; written the text of a video out of paper clips, a Norwegian symbol of nonviolent resistance; retraced the path of protest that closed the only nuclear power plant in Austria; and preserved reckonings made by travelers to the site of the first detonation of an atomic bomb. Works from the project have screened in spaces including 21er Haus, Vienna; Ambulante, Ciudad de México; Anthology Film Archives; Cairo Video Festival; European Media Art Festival, Osnabrück; International Film Festival, Rotterdam; Museo Nazionale del Cinema, Torino; New York Film Festival; Punto de Vista, Pamplona; Sundance Film Festival; Wexner Center for the Arts, Ohio; Whitechapel Gallery, London.
