INTIMACY is both a group and a series of events designed to address an aesthetically and formally diverse set of responses to the notion of 'being intimate' in emergent and hybrid performance practices.
INTIMACY will provide a platform for the discussion of sub-cultural practices concerned with displaying intuitive, intimate and visceral relationships between artist and other. It thus affords contemporary practitioners, theorists and students the opportunity of practical and critical engagement with present co-ordinates that define these practices.
Some questions to be addressed include:
* How are bodies represented through technology?
* How is desire constructed through representation?
* What is the relationship of the body to self-awareness?
INTIMACY will explore technologies that can enhance 'closeness': networking technologies such as the Internet, wireless networks, telecommunications and Web.02; sensor technologies; virtual reality and other digital multi-user environments.
INTIMACY is organised by Maria X (drp01mc@gold.ac.uk)

As new media art becomes more ubiquitous, it is crucial to see through
its trendiness to its epistemological and aesthetic implications.
Operating in the convergence between the arts, science and technology,
media art instigates a new set of cognitive phenomena and mandates new
practical and discursive agendas. With its strong multisensorial
effects, captivating and enthralling, it challenges the world of [read more...]

TaPRA New Technologies for Theatre and Performance Working Group Interim
Symposium
In 1921 the Stage printed an article that asked why the new ‘Kinema’ had not
remained part of theatre. The reasons offered centred on finance and lack of
skill in the training of directors to be able to integrate this screen based
phenomena with live actors.
Issues surrounding the appropriate training of performance makers in dealing
with ‘new’ technologies still abound and the digital age has brought an
unprecedented plethora of new presentation systems into the live [read more...]
