Title: Entangled: Technology and the Transformation of Performance
Description: Cambridge, Massachusetts, MIT Press, 2010. Hardcover. White DJ with red and orange lettering; grey boards with metallic silver lettering; xxxix, 460 pp.; richly illustrated; ephemera laid-in. Foreword by Peter Sellars. "Each chapter in Entangled focuses on a different form: theater scenography, architecture, video and image making, music and sound composition, body-based arts, mechanical and robotic art, and interactive environments constructed for research, festivals, and participatory urban spaces. Salter's exhaustive survey and analysis shows that performance traditions have much to teach other emerging practices--in particular in the burgeoning fields of new media. Students of digital art need to master not only electronics and code but also dramaturgy, lighting, sound, and scenography. Entangled will serve as an invaluable reference for students, researchers, and artists as well as a handbook for future praxis." Contents as follows: Space 1 : scene/machine (1876-1933) -- Space 2 : media scenographies (1950- ) -- Performing architectures -- The projected image : video, film, and the performative screen -- Sound -- Bodies -- Machines/Mechanicals -- Interaction -- Conclusion : the everyday.
