“…13 Schmidt (2015) connects affect theory and devised performance practice to ask, "what is it that moves us to act" (p. 5), particularly in moments when we are faced with representations of suffering.

This essay is a place where the everyday meets critical artistic practice meets theory. Within a critical artistic researcher’s everyday practice, critical theory is lived and practiced in modes that are material and felt. Building on the of critical theorists who write explicitly about their relationships with theory, three researchers write vignettes detailing small moments in their practice. The vignettes make visible the ways the everyday and critical theory interlock and show how critical artistic research asks us to consider ways of caring, being accountable, attending to, and growing sensibilities for living with critical theories.

This brief essay considers what new materialist thought and affect theory in particular might bring to activist politics, particularly the need to sustain the energy and power of public assembly in the form of political marches into a movement that persists in and through time. We consider the site of both terrorist and activist acts not only as a public space—or stage—upon which both acts occur, but instead as public body that keeps the movement moving.
