The digital performer: Performance, technology and new performance paradigms
Oliver, M. L.; McKay, G. A., «The digital performer: Performance, technology and new performance paradigms». phd, University of Salford, 2014 Abstract This thesis, portfolio of published original performances and texts examines the extent to which one can create an equitable and convincing ‘live’ performance presence when creating performances that incorporate mediatised performers. The experimental process forefronts the dialogic relationship of the onstage to the on-screen performer, as such the devising methodology has primarily been focused on experimentation with the scripted narrative. The research illustrates significant technological and formal transitions during the research period, which has also seen the development from analogue to digital formats. In a systematic series of test-bed…

Photography and contemporary Spanish theater: Kaleidoscopic modes of dramatic representation
Hodge, Polly Jane, «Photography and contemporary Spanish theater: Kaleidoscopic modes of dramatic representation». Ph.D., , Ann Arbor, United States 1995 Abstract This project is an examination of the modes of representation in contemporary Spanish theatrical arts. I investigate the world view, technical and dramatic features and theoretical concerns regarding the different modes of representation in theater: theatrical, dramatic and photographic texts. My emphasis is on the mode of photography and the conceptualization of gender within the different modes of representation. I propose a photo-theatrical gaze as a way of looking at photographs of theatrical productions through a comparative lens, an optic that considers the many texts within which a theatrical…

The silver stage: Theatre in the age of mechanical reproduction
Bleam, Jeffrey Robert, «The silver stage: Theatre in the age of mechanical reproduction». Ph.D., , Ann Arbor, United States 2005 Abstract Implicit in its subtitle (“Theatre in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction”), this study begins with a rejection of Walter Benjamin’s assurance that the theatrical arts are immune from the ideological processes inherent in mechanical reproduction. I seek to argue that as theatre artists and encultured subjects in general, we process information and form perceptual strategies through a series of frames created and encouraged by the representational field of the larger visual culture at specific times and societies. I contend that these frames and strategies do not change over time…

The PhotoPerformer : The Performance of Photography as an Act of Precarious Interdependency
Vason, Manuel, «The PhotoPerformer : The Performance of Photography as an Act of Precarious Interdependency». PhD Thesis, Brighton University, 2019 Abstract This PhD by Publication explores Manuel Vason’s art practice at the intersections of photography and performance culminating in his development of the PhotoPerformer. Vason formulates the interdependency between the two art forms as a reflexive collaboration with the Other and as an evolving methodology which leads to a collaborative transformation of photography through performance. Vason questions the fixity of photography – symbolized by ‘the frame’ – as an ideological dispositive of power and control that distances subject and object and enforces a unique, absolute and finished perspective. Considering photography…

Jeff Wall: fotografias à escala humana
Miranda, Helena A., «Jeff Wall: fotografias à escala humana». Tese de Mestrado, Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Lisboa, 2011 Abstract Seguindo o rasto de dois autores, foi meu interesse desenvolver alguns tópicos relacionados com fotografia, tradição pictórica e problemas de composição no contexto da arte contemporânea, especificamente em alguma da produção fotográfica feita a partir da década de 70. A obra de Jeff Wall é composta por imagens com múltiplas influências, como o cinema, a pintura, a literatura, o quotidiano e as experiências falhadas, Michael Fried ou os minimalistas. O resultado, muitas vezes exibido em caixas de luz numa escala quase humana, é inequivocamente fotográfico e visa repor o…

Esthétique des mythologies individuelles : le dispositif photographique de Nadja à Sophie Calle
Nachtergael, Magali, «Esthétique des mythologies individuelles : le dispositif photographique de Nadja à Sophie Calle». Thèse de doctorat – PhD dissertation, Université Paris 7, sous la direction d’Eric Marty, 2008 Abstract L’invention de la photographie a permis à l’individu moderne de documenter visuellement et de façon autonome son histoire personnelle. Les avant-gardes au vingtième siècle (surréalistes, situationnistes, artistes conceptuels) ont alors élevé au rang d’art ces traces indicielles des événements de la vie ordinaire ou de processus esthétiques à l’œuvre. Les productions artistiques et littéraires se sont alors recentrées sur l’expérience subjective de l’auteur au quotidien et Nadja d’André Breton marque l’avènement du récit autobiographique moderne illustré de photographies, à…

Never Mere Observation: Performance, Technology, and the Act of Looking
Krauter, Sarah G. Marsh, «Never Mere Observation: Performance, Technology, and the Act of Looking». Ph.D., , Ann Arbor, United States 2017 Abstract Herbert Blau, in defining the act of looking as “never mere observation”, describes how the action of the visual faculty is not simply about seeing, but the engagement in an active, circulatory exchange between culture and viewer. Never Mere Observation posits a dialectical relationship between spectatorship, performance, and emerging technologies. In this study, my aim is to track a pattern of ideas and use to assert the possible connections between the evolution of technology and the evolution of narrative structure. The biomechanical function of the act of looking…
