The Reception is a cross-disciplinary dance/performance piece utilizing 3D Tele-Immersion technology to re-vision corporeal presence and formations of the virtual body within live theatrical environments. The process for making the work is both research based and performative and raises important questions about how the virtual and real can find social interaction and co-presence even when bi-located or re-composed in cyberspace. Also at question is how the creative process itself affects the development of Tele-Immersion technology and how the technology influences creative outcomes. Present at the talk, along with Professor Wymore (UC Berkeley), will be Sheldon Smith (Bay Area Dance/Video artist), and Professor Ruzena Bajscy UC Berkeley) who are collaborators on the project.
