đŸ’¡DADA LIVES Absurdist Resistance Workshop
From Dada To Frogs: How the World has been influenced by The Dada Movement STILL
Overview
By tracing the evolution of Dada from 1916 Zurich to contemporary frog brigades, this workshop examines how absurdist tactics undermine rigid authority and create space for authentic expression. Forget polite protest—learn how nonsense poetry, readymade art, and strategic weirdness hold the key to resisting systems that demand we be predictable, categorizable, and controlled.
Speaker Notes
Presenter Bio:
Tyler Hanson is a storyteller, placemaker, !artivist! as well as a recovering festival producer with three decades of experience working with creative communities at the highest and lowest levels of experience design. In recent years, his focus has shifted to exploring how absurdist art practices can serve as tactical responses to authoritarianism and collective despair. He is deeply committed to the revolutionary potential of gathering people in purposeful chaos—a mission he continues through his consultancy, PEAK, and his ongoing study of how Dadaist principles can forge resilient communities in uncertain times.
