About this EpisodeThis episode introduces the self-estrangement performance practice at the heart of the research. Developed over a decade, this method involves deliberately unsettling one’s habitual identity in order to explore and inhabit alternative characters. By manipulating subtle physical and vocal behaviours, the artist becomes other—and in doing so, questions what the self is and how it forms. Drawing on video documentation from the ongoing One-Woman Empathy Circus, the practice is framed as both a research tool and a lived inquiry into character, authorship, and the mechanics of self.About this SeriesScripting for Agency: An Artistic Enquiry into Selfhood, Character and Agency in the Age of AI is a video lecture series based on Dr Katarina Ranković’s practice-based PhD in Fine Art at Goldsmiths, University of London. Combining philosophy, performance, creative writing, and AI theory, the series explores how our understanding of the self shapes our personal lives, our politics, and our relationship to intelligent technologies.LinksSeries Playlist: https://bit.ly/sfa-series PhD thesis (PDF format): https://bit.ly/sfa-pdfThesis artworks: https://bit.ly/sfa-artReferencesKatarina Ranković, The One Woman Empathy Circus (2012–present).
