Catherine Graham and I have been talking about performance and technology (and contemporary culture). Is there an emerging research field at the intersection of technology and performance?
Here is an association (Performance Studies international) dedicated to performance studies.
Some of the intersections are:
Theatre technology
Virtual Reality – creation of virtual spaces for performance
Digital video and cinema
Animated performance
Computer games
Interface as performance (See Brenda Laurel)
Cyberbodies and cyborgs
