Marionettes / Scripting Reality / On Manipulation / Txt Theater / Public Collaboration Dynamics
Performance series by Annie Abrahams and Igor Stromajer
Igor and Annie will be united in a webcam performance interface.
Their images projected together in front of a public that has acces via computers and smartphones to an URL where they can write text instructions for the performers.
Igor and Annie will be the marionettes to be put into (e)motion via this text written by the public.
Two speakers will read this text aloud in front of the public while Annie and Igor will execute as good as they can the protocol and commands proposed to them, they won’t kiss.
No content determined. The performers are as instruments. There is no agency without commands. The public is the master of this game. This project tends them a mirror – a mirror for their capacity to co-write these events, to guide this intimate meeting of two internet puppets.
External instructions from the public are activating internal structures of the performers, who are also too occupied by the execution of the instructions to consciously negotiate their presence, and so they're showing their vulnerabilities and doubts, their messy and sloppy sides, their "hidden code" and are going beyond self-representation* and the control that this requires.
*see "Trapped to Reveal – On webcam mediated communication and collaboration" An exposition concerning my collaborative webcam performance projects, focussing on / trying to determine the special aspects of machine mediated communication and collaboration, published in the Journal for Artistic Research.
As much an exercice in collectif writing as a performance.
