Reviews
'This is an exciting and important collection of writings from experts and practitioners working in the field of art, performance and technology. Its authors interrogate conceptual elements from art and performance practitioners that utilize a broad range of diverse technologies within their artistic practices and in so doing integrate and articulate new interfaces of performance. The collection represents a timely and distinctive contribution to the field of performance and technology.' Susan Broadhurst, Brunel University, UK 'Sliding in and out of theatrical spaces, and merging the work of scholars and artists, Interfaces of Performance expands the boundaries of technological performance scholarship. The essays in this volume represent a cross-section of practitioners, scholars, and curators exploring necessary themes in the development of media and performance. Interfaces of Performance is a valuable contribution to the field of new media and performance, expanding the boundaries of scholarship and practice to include a wide range of international practice and theory. A dynamically structured and user-friendly volume, it will be a welcome addition to reading lists for media and performance'. Jennifer Parker-Starbuck, Roehampton University, UK 'Interfaces of Performance is an unpredictable journey where one is left with assurance, rather than concern, that we are in a healthy state of flux. From here we have the possibility to see the performance and technology interface as one that is progressive and its convergence with an ever-broadening set of disciplines offers the opportunity for the most-significant artistic revolution since the 1960s. This is what happens when you let artists speak for themselves: you get an unruly, often disconcerting, enlightening, stylistically unpredictable result and, just like this book, I highly recommend it.' International Journal of Performance Arts and Digital Media 'Interfaces of Performance is a rich collection, full of stimulating ideas...' Literary and Linguistic Computing
