Keynote Address: The Traumatic Repeat: Villa Grimaldi Now and Again
Trauma, like performance, is known by the nature of its repeats: 鈥渘ever for the first time.鈥� We speak of trauma only when the event cannot be processed and produces the characteristic aftershocks. The traumatic blow may be in the past, but trauma, like performance, is always experienced in the present. Here. Now. In this piece based on multiple visits to Villa Grimaldi (the torture center in Chile under Pinochet), Diana Taylor explores how trauma and memory sites change over the years, always 'there' ready to be re-activated in the present.
