is
a new work for Arch-OS, in collaboration with the artists Eve Dent, commissioned
by:
Performance Research: a quarterly journal of contemporary performance
arts 'On the Page' Vol.9, No.2 (June 2004 ISSN 1352-8165)
With the support the Centre for Creative Enterprise and Participation
at Dartington College of Arts and the South West of England Regional Development
Agency/ Knowledge Exploitation South West 'Proof of Concept' funding,
Performance Research is able to commission a number of works from artists
and practitioners based in or related to the South West area for an issue
to be called 'On the Page' and published in June 2004.
'On the Page' will take to another stage the journal's investigations
into the relationship between print, digital media and performance. Commissioned
pieces, which the editors hope may include practitioners in a number of
disciplines, for example including architecture, musical composition,
choreography, will show concern for the future of the page as a vehicle
for ideas and for navigating the limbo between the tangible mutable world
of paper, the event/ space of performance, and the digital realm.
Performance Research
The journal Performance Research (Routledge/ Taylor & Francis) founded
and edited by Ric Allsopp, Richard Gough and Claire MacDonald has been
an important and distinctive voice in the world of contemporary performance
arts since 1996, publishing work by a wide range of artists, practitioners
and scholars from the UK, continental Europe, the USA and Australia. As
well as speaking for contemporary concerns in the spheres of performance,
theatre, dance, and critical practice, Performance Research also tries
to redraw the boundaries of academic publishing in its engagement with
the visual language of textual practice. It has been unusual in encouraging
academics and theoreticians as well as artists and practitioners to contribute
material in the form of 'artists' pages and to consider the printed page
equally as a discursive and performative space.
