This exciting new book identifies and examines those changes to live performance occasioned by the rise of digital media in contemporary theatre aesthetics. Formulating a new framework for both analyzing and creating contemporary new media performance including multimedia theatre and dance, video performance and installation, the book also explores how the synthesis of new dramaturgy and new media has changed the experience of live arts for the spectator. Drawing on case studies from artists and works including dumb type, The Wooster Group and Blast Theory , amongst others, the book will be of interest to academics, students and artists working in new media and dramaturgy.weiterlesen
