Our Daily Performance
In the past decade, Giuseppe Chico and Barbara Matijević have explored the use of the Internet, web culture and digital practices. Our Daily Performance looks at YouTube tutori-als. In the space of a few years, the platform has become the go to place for know-how, hosting billions of videos of all kinds. Every day, millions of people share their expertise and practices. Giuseppe Chico and Barbara Matijević dip into the pot to twist and reshape tutorials, creating incongruous situations and new attitudes with witty humour. How can companies improve team cohesion? How do you write a rap based on a collection of tweets? What’s the best way to fall at home? Valentine’s day fitness sessions for couples. The ideal way to combine Christian practice and martial arts. Midway between irony and seriousness, the duo performs a series of live “how-tos” for today’s world.

les ballets C de la B and the aesthetic of reality
Meeting with literature
Collaboration between a choreographer and a writer can lead to the emergence of a large number of combinations. If sometimes the choreographer creates his dance around the work of an author, the writer can also choose dance as the subject of his text.
