  • Getting into the Act: Video in Live Performance Bibliography

    The article examines how video has enabled live performers to manipulate space and time, citing Trish Brown's wall choreography and Joan Jonas's distant performance; it argues that video offers immediacy, flexibility, and new compositional possibilities on stage. It traces video integration from late-1960s experimental work (Vito Acconci's Claim, Chris Burden's Match Piece) through narrative and abstract uses, with examples including Marjorie Gamso's At Turning Points, Alien Ginsburg's Kaddish, Joanne Kelly's Tahmar, Amy Greenfield's Mat/Glass and Aldo Tambellini/Sarah Dickinson's Pierot in Time. The author is a freelance writer and coeditor of The Handbook of Television Dance, to be published by Marcel Dekker Inc. by the end of this year.
