A cinema without cameras, without actors, without screen frames and without narratives almost seems like an antithetical impossibility of what is usually expected from a cinematic spectacle. This book defines an emergent field of post-cinematic theatre and performance, challenging our assumptions and expectations about theatre and film.

This book addresses a deceptively simple question: what accounts for the global success of A Doll’s House, Henrik Ibsen’s most popular play? Using maps, networks, and images to explore the world history of the play’s production, this question is considered from two angles: cultural transmission and adaptation.
Intermedial Theater
Performance Philosophy, Transversal Poetics, and the Future of Affect
Inbunden, Engelska, 2017
1 467 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This book explores relationships between intermedial theater, consciousness, memory, objects, subjectivity, and affect through productive engagement with the performance aesthetics, socio-cognitive theory, and critical methodology of transversal poetics alongside other leading philosophical approaches to performance. It offers the first sustained analysis of the work of Gilles Deleuze, Félix Guattari, Jean Baudrillard, and Friedrich Nietzsche in relation to the contemporary European theater of Jan Lauwers and Needcompany, Romeo Castellucci and Socìetas Raffaello Sanzio, Thomas Ostermeier, Rodrigo García and La Carnicería Teatro, and the Transversal Theater Company. It connects contemporary uses of objects, simulacra, and technologies in both posthumanist discourse and postdramatic theater to the transhistorically and culturally mediating power of Shakespeare as a means by which to discuss the affective impact of intermedial theater on today’s audiences.

This book explores the circus as a site in and through which science and technology are represented in popular culture. Across eight chapters written by leading scholars – from fields as varied as performance and circus studies, art, media and cultural history, and engineering – the book discusses to what extent the engineering of circus and performing bodies can be understood as a strategy to promote awe, how technological inventions have shaped circus and the cultures it helps constitute, and how much of a mutual shaping this is. What kind of cultural and aesthetic effects does engineering in circus contexts achieve? How do technological inventions and innovations impact on the circus? How does the link between circus and technology manifest in representations and interpretations – imaginaries – of the circus in other media and popular culture? Circus, Science and Technology examines the ways circus can provide a versatile frame for interpreting our relationship with technology.

When the arts, culture, and entertainment industries came to a halt in late winter 2020, many claimed this was the end of art as we knew it. As the global pandemic and its consequences continue to play out, the question of how we have learned—as creators or consumers—to play, is far from settled.

When the arts, culture, and entertainment industries came to a halt in late winter 2020, many claimed this was the end of art as we knew it. Theatre managers, museum directors, performers, artists, and everyday folks had to figure out new strategies for living and thriving in a new world order. As the global pandemic and its consequences continue to play out, the question of how we have learned—as creators or consumers—to play, is far from settled. This collection addresses pandemic play in broad terms: how did creative industries adapt to a majority virtual world? How have our understandings of community and play evolved? Might new forms of art and play outlive the pandemic and supplant earlier iterations? Pandemic Play takes these questions as a starting point, exploring strategies, case studies, and effects of the arts worlds gone virtual.

This book explores video annotation as a reflective, analytic, organisational, and publishing tool for performance scholarship. On the understanding that we differentiate ourselves through the adoption of technology, annotation is introduced as a manual practice of seeing and decision-making that not only enriches or supplements time-based media but develops the analytic capacity and deep attention of human (rather than computational) subjects. This is an important book for students and scholars in dance, performance studies, media studies, and anyone working with video as a research tool.

Skinning the Virtual in Contemporary Performance
Identity Boundaries in the Metaverse
Inbunden, Engelska, 2026

Kommande
This book investigates the way that multiple layers and authors of representation are present in the act of modern skinning. These acts are not simple choices by game users or even the game authors directly. Rather, skinning emerges from the chaos of coding and motion capture, a necessity rather than a carefully considered performance. Without an examination of who is creating these images and why, we get only the view of the final user, leading to unintended performances that reify or impose gendered and racialized performances. Through interrogation of virtual platforms in video games, virtual reality, and performance, this book provides a framework for understanding the choices we are asked to make when taking on a virtual skin within a virtual space.
