Regular ∞OS Training
In this regular training we will focus on exploring the concepts of direct impulse, assimilation and redirection using the exercises with punches and wrestling techniques.

In this session we will look into the question of generating external impulses and incoming tensions as well as reacting to them. We will experiment with the existing patterns we have and then try to implement the new patterns and compare how well they operate. We will also apply Holocracy method for structuring work into Circles (smaller groups) who will be responsible for finding an effective strategy and then sharing it with the rest of the group. The training will…

Building Organizational Bodymind Operating Systems
Self-organization and conflict as a generative force Building Organizational Bodymind Operating Systems /In this course we will introduce the notion of operating system in the context of organizational management and personal development. //You will learn the basic principles of self organization and how to apply structures that will help you move beyond binary/linear logic without falling into chaos. ///We will demonstrate how this analogy borrowed from the world of software development (along with the principles of agile development) can be…

Introduction to ∞OS
∞OS is a bodymind operating system based on implementing oscillatory dynamics in everyday interaction through physical practice. In this introductory session, which is a part of ∞OS Hidden Agency residency during "Welt Ohne Aussen" exhibition at Martin Gropius Bau, I will demonstrate the main principles of ∞OS and also our special learning method where we use physical metaphors to implement new patterns of behavior into everyday life. In our practice we combine elements from Systema Russian martial art, Noguchi Taiso…

Hidden Agency is a speculative hybrid entity set up by ∞OS team in the context of "Welt ohne Außen" exhibition at Martin Gropius Bau, where we will explore reciprocal relations between intellectual / ethical frameworks and collective embodied practices. Every time a session facilitator will introduce their practice and various ways how it weaves into ∞OS, experimenting with a hybrid approach, merging the two practices together, observing the effects on the body, on the participants, and on the environment. Facilitators &…

This very special ∞OS workshop session will take place in the context of PRAGMA Festival for Exchange between Practices. The first part, from 10.30 to 14.30, will focus on exploring the main principles of ∞OS based on fluidity, adaptivity and assimilation. We will make a particular emphasis on how those principles can be abstracted and used in any other context, not only in physical interaction. After a break (from 16.00 to 18.00) we will move on to explore how ∞OS…

∞OS Activation Program: The Dynamics of Nonequilibrium Stability
This 2-day program (4 hours every day with a break) is open both to the beginners and the advanced practitioners of ∞OS. We will get into dynamical systems theory and explore how it can inspire us for the new behavioral patterns, both on the physical and on the cognitive levels. We will explore nonequilibrium stability and a dance of escalation/deescalation/conflict as a creative dynamic force that can be used to modulate interactive flows. A mix of movement practice and science,…
Find out more »Activation and Response: Fluidity, Giving and Receiving (Strikes)
In this session we will explore some of the Systema principles and work with the pushes and strikes. We will learn the different strategies of sending an impulse into a body (or any other structure) as well as the different strategies of receiving them. We will then escalate both the speed and intensity and observe the changes in the dynamics of the activation and response behavior. We will also explore the different strategies to recover (using burst-breathing and soft movement), which…

∞OS: Assimilation and Redirection
In this session we will work with the concepts of assimilation and redirection, exploring their effect on our behavior through physical movement and interactive exercises. We will see how adaptability may be improved if we react to an incoming impulse with assimilative response: accepting and integrating its in~tension or redirecting it towards a different set of coordinates. Continuing our work based on the fluid body movement and strikes we will gather the new movement patterns together to see how they…

In this session we will explore the concepts of contact, control, evasion and in~tention using the body. We will work with the sticks to have a direct embodied experience of connection and leader/follower roles. We will then move on to a really nice work focused on evasion and redirecting in~tention through space.JTNDaDIlM0VHZXQlMjBhJTIwc3BvdCUzQSUzQyUyRmgyJTNFJTBBJTNDdGl0by13aWRnZXQlMjBldmVudCUzRCUyMjhvcyUyRmJlcmxpbi0wNDE3JTIyJTNFJTNDJTJGdGl0by13aWRnZXQlM0U=
