Performance research paths:

notes for an undisciplined methodology

Abstract

In this text, I introduce some paths I have been exploring on the methodological aspects related to my theoretical and practical research on performance art. It concerns some aesthetic and theoretical experiments that I started to conduct along the first semester of the doctoral degree program - the Graduate Program in Contemporary Studies of the Arts, at Universidade Federal Fluminense. The methodological tensions focused in this article cross paths with interdisciplinarity, multidisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity, considered as performance methodologies, as well as "work in process", and rebellion as a form of political action of the bodies and the creative process in performance. Also, based on a review of what I developed in my MA through the methodologies of NA-VA-LHAS, I intend focusing on the indiscipline as an enlarged field for the development of a “pesquisaperformance” (researchperformance).
