All the Time, 3:42: Collaborative encounters with the mundane.

Villanueva Dela Cruz, E.; Dyson, G.; Gaspar, R.; Goudouna, S.; Haines, T.; Laine, E.; Larson, B.; McKenzie, V.; Ortuzar, J.; Ranwalage, S.; Tzakou, A. & Wan, E. (2024). Everywhere, All the Time, 3:42: Collaborative encounters with the mundane.  Performance Research 28 (4): On the Mundane.

Co-created and co-curated brief pieces representing mundane life are spread throughout the issue. Ranging from the descriptive to the poetic to the found or discovered, these pieces ask the reader to engage and re-engage with mundanity as they read. The work emerged through a series of workshops, the creation of performance scores, and the collaborative development of the piece’s form and its content. Drawn from mundane experiences and performances observed and developed by a dozen authors situated in various parts of the world, the incessant performance of mundanity is meant to remind us of how pervasive the mundane actually is and how overlooked it necessarily can be.
