No. 50 (2025): Dossier: "Live Art and Uncertain Technologies"
This issue explores the relationship between live art and technology, with special attention on those technologies that we have called "uncertain" due to their hybrid nature, the indeterminacy of their use and their propensity for rapid evolution often leading to unexpected paths, based on digital media and virtual tools. We are interested in reflecting on how technology "modifies" or expands the body itself (devices, virtual reality interfaces, neural implants, prostheses, etc.), how all this can impact on relationships between people showing, consequently, repercussions for creation. We are therefore interested in exploring the performing arts potential of this kind of technical innovation: what opportunities does it provide when it comes to expanding the concepts of theatricality and performativity? How can virtuality dialogue with the in-person nature of theatre?
