Connected! LiveArt

Author: Angela Plohman - Date: 04 feb 2008, 13:56

LiveArt is an umbrella term, a conceptual framework for live arts practice that dynamically slips between the more stratified genres of the performing arts such as dance, theatre, music, and now, games. Its tenet, if one could dare to call it that, is its resistance to representation, to the inscription of meaning, through its embrace of process. Its very liveness and insistence on change and transformation is integral to its practice. The concerns of LiveArt are not about crossing boundaries per se, but favour the dissolution of boundaries into emergent forms. The intersecting of cultural networks through transductive processes, through collaborative exchange, has been a key ingredient in the Connected! Programme.
