- Title
Mathematics and Performance Art: First Steps on an Open Road.
- Authors

- Abstract
This paper concerns the presentation of a set of possibilities of connecting mathematical concepts and performance art pieces. These possibilities have their origin in a personal practice in performance art and mathematics but are presented here as connecting both areas, as well as connecting theory and practice, especially in a performance art context. Three main possibilities are discussed here: a model to connect with a performance art piece using mathematic tools, turbulence in mathematics and in performance art and some thoughts on how to understand a performance art piece as an intersubjective matrix. A case study is also provided.
