This paper explores Victoria Welby's fundamental assumption of meaning process ("semiosis" sensu Peirce) as translation, and some implications for the development of a general model of intersemiotic translation.
Descrevemos neste artigo um experimento de tradução intersemiótica, o espetáculo [5.sobre.o.mesmo]. Trata-se de uma tradução para dança de um fragmento da prosa de Gertrude Stein, “Orta or One Dancing”. O espetáculo pode ser descrito como um “laboratório de tradução” criativa em que foram exibidos os resultados de cinco criadores-intérpretes, além dos resultados do músico e do arquiteto. O principal objetivo do projeto foi tornar explícito os processos de recriação da obra de Stein, ao mostrar comparativamente diferentes repertórios e estratégias, sobre o mesmo texto.
MOBILE ART PROJECT TO A PHOTOGRAPHIC ESSAYVIA is a mobile art project (video-dance and computational music) semiotically translated to photographic media by means of formal constraints derived from selected properties of Rio de Janeiro's predefined downtown routes. Under the constraints of street buildings and the morphology of the routes, questions regarding the influence of the bodily movements of the urban space led to the creation of a dance typology. This typology is related to pedestrians in the area and to the structure of the buildings spans where the performance happened. The dance movements captured in the videos were restricted and regulated by the physical environment and its main features. Here, an intersemiotic translation of a mobile art project to a photographic essay is presented and described. It strongly relates, and tentatively explores, both an artistic research praxis and a theoretical discussion. The essay explores an analogous semiotic effect from the VIA project on the photographic essay as a result of this investigation.
