Performing Projections: A Two-Year Collaboration between Theatrum Mundi and Jayden Ali, Unit Leader of the Spatial Practices Programme at Central Saint Martins, explores the intersection of performance-making and architectural thinking. The publication brings together the voices of students, educators, and practitioners to address the fundamental question: Can performance-making be a craft for architectural thinking? The studio served as an experimental testbed, where methodologies were developed using the techniques of scoring, staging, rehearsing, and improvising to raise provocative questions about who has the right to access, occupy, use, and remake our urban environments. Edited by Cecily Chua and Jayden Ali, the publication features contributions from a diverse range of contributors, including Abby Bird, Andrea Cetrulo, Andrea Luka Zimmerman, Andreas Lang, Annie Dermawan, Awais Ali, Callum Brown, Cameron Bray, Cecily Chua, Dhara Bhatt, Elahe Karimnia, Jake Johnson, Jayden Ali, John Bingham-Hall, Kleanthis Kyriakou, Lydia Hyde, Mollie Griffiths, Olivia Sutherill, Rebecca Faulkner, Sara Lohse, and Yibeijia Li.
