Panelists: Minerva Cuevas (Mexico) and Andrew Paterson (Toronto)
Dates and Venue: October 22, 2005, 1 pm
Stanford Perrot Lecture Theatre, Alberta College of Art & Design
Presented by: Alberta College of Art & Design
Nature of Event: panel discussion, Performative Audio Series
In conjunction with the VIRTUAL BODIES workshop (October 17 - 28), Anita Ponton will moderate the panel discussion technologies and bodies: performative spaces.
Questions raised will include: How does the use of technology within performance art affect concepts of presence and exchange? How is our experience of space and time altered through technological mediation, and how does the body (both in performance and audience) respond to this? How are narrative, history and memory refigured? How do digital media and virtual reality shift conventional notions of physicality and representation? How do technologies change possibilities for interaction within public, social and cyber space? How are the boundaries of performative space and agency redefined?
