Disrupted Rhythms: A Rhythmanalysis Workshop with Bradley Tuck

Rhythms are everywhere: in our bodies, our habits, our labour, our relationships, our cities, and our technologies. Yet because we are immersed within them, they often disappear from perception. Drawing on the tradition of rhythmanalysis developed by thinkers such as Henri Lefebvre, Gaston Bachelard, and Lúcio Alberto Pinheiro dos Santos, this workshop explores rhythm as a way of understanding everyday life through movement, attention, and collective experimentation.

This workshop invites participants to think and move as rhythmanalysts: attending to repetitions, interruptions, intensities, routines, and disruptions within both individual and collective experience.

I am a multidisciplinary writer, researcher, events facilitator, filmmaker, and performance artist, as well as the founder of the arts and culture salon, Exploding Appendix. With an academic foundation in theatre, philosophy, and literature, my research spans the history of the avant-garde across all mediums, focusing particularly on the intersections between encyclopaedias, appendices, and avant-garde movements. My work explores the influence of military and revolutionary theory on the avant-garde and delves into the history of public discourse and autodidactic educational projects such as salons, avant-garde movements, proletkult, and free schools.

I have created numerous short films and a feature film titled The Cake Tasting Society. In 2020, I initiated Disrupted Rhythms, a practice-based exploration of Henri Lefebvre’s rhythmanalysis. My artistic and research practice primarily operates within communities, using art to foster dialogue and discussions.

I am currently working on a part-time PhD on the relationship between avant-garde art, encyclopaedias and appendices at the University of Sussex, with Sara Crangle and Sara Jane Bailes as my supervisors.
