Instruments of Embodiment draws on fashion theory and the philosophy of embodiment to investigate costuming in contemporary dance. It weaves together philosophical theory and artistic practice by closely analyzing acclaimed works by contemporary choreographers, considering interviews with costume designers, and engaging in practice-as-research. Topics discussed include the historical evolution of contemporary dance costuming, Merce Cunningham’s innovative collaborations with Robert Rauschenberg, and costumes used in Ohad Naharin’s Virus (2001) and in a ground-breaking Butoh solo by Tatsumi Hijikata. The relationship between dance costuming and high fashion, wearable computing, and the role costume plays in dance reconstruction are also discussed and, along the way, an anarchist materialism is articulated which takes an egalitarian view of artistic collaboration and holds that experimental costume designs facilitate new forms of embodied experience and ways of seeing the body. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars working in performance philosophy, philosophy of embodiment, dance and performance studies, and fashion theory.

Robot Theaters explores the fascinating theatrical nature of robots and their unique capacity to illuminate human performativity through their own machinic performances.This groundbreaking anthology challenges conventional scientific and commercial approaches to robotics by positioning theater and dance methodologies as essential frameworks for understanding our increasingly automated world. The collection traverses diverse territories – from the historical contexts of performing robots in social and staged settings to the industrial and military applications of robotics technology. Contributors examine the creative possibilities emerging at the intersection of choreography and robotic performance, revealing unexpected spaces for play, joy, and artistic collaboration. The book weaves together scholarly perspectives with insights from practicing artists through illuminating interviews with prominent figures in the field: Thomas DeFrantz discusses the racial dimensions of robot performance, Sydney Skybetter reflects on choreorobotic practice within university research environments, and Taiwanese choreographer-roboticist Huang Yi shares his pioneering creative methodologies. By bringing together these interdisciplinary conversations spanning choreography, critical race studies, feminist media studies, research-creation methods, and biopolitics, the anthology offers a rich tapestry of perspectives on the robot as performer.This innovative collection will appeal to scholars and practitioners in performance studies, robotics, media arts, and cultural studies, as well as anyone interested in the evolving relationship between technology and creative expression.

This book investigates how Pragmatist philosophy as a philosophical method contributes to the understanding and practice of interdisciplinary dance research. It uses the author's own practice-based research project, Later Rain, to illustrate this. Later Rain is a post-dramatic dance theater work that engages primarily with issues in the philosophy of religion and socio-political philosophy. It focuses on ecstatic states that arise in Appalachian charismatic Pentecostal church services, states characterized by dancing, paroxysms, shouting, and speaking in tongues (glossolalia). Research for this work is interdisciplinary as it draws on studio practice, ethnographic field work, cultural history, Pentecostal history and theology, folk aesthetics, anthropological understandings of ecstatic religious rituals, and dance history regarding acclaimed works that have sought to present aspects of religious ecstasy on stage; Doris Humphrey's The Shakers (1931), Mark Godden’s Angels in the Architecture (2012), Martha Clarke’s Angel Reapers (2015) and Ralph Lemon’s Geography trilogy (2005). The project thereby demonstrates a process model of dance philosophy, showing how philosophy and dance artistry intertwine in a specific creative process.
