MULTIPLICITOUS STATES
Multiplicitous States is a collaborative research project between myself and computer programmer Antonio Roberts, which highlights ‘slow digital’ processes that explore and contaminate the space between live movement composition and digital authorship, as based on experimentations between choreography and digital glitch art.
The work follows my ongoing research into Anne Weinstone’s posthuman proposition of the ‘avatar body’, as also Andre Lepecki’s trope of ephemerality in performed movement practices in order to interrogate affective choreography. In this article I explore how my collaboration with Roberts emerges inbetween live movement composition, the re-articulation of live movement composition via digital feed, the projected movements of the dancer/avatar body, and the emergent digitised bodily figures.
The project further formed part of my own REF entry through Liverpool Hope University's School of Creative and Performing Arts Research.
