Sommario/riassunto |
|
This volume explores the intersections of live performance and video games, focusing on how digital technologies influence contemporary theatre practices and performance arts. Edited by Réjane Dreifuss, Simon Hagemann, and Izabella Pluta, the book examines the mutual inspirations and transfers between these mediums. It addresses topics such as gamified theatre, immersive experiences, the dramaturgy of video games, and the use of game technologies in live performances. Contributions from researchers and practitioners provide insights into the evolving narrative forms, participatory arts, and the interplay between physical and virtual realities. Intended for scholars, artists, and students in theatre studies and media arts, the publication aims to promote understanding of the cultural, technological, and performative dynamics shaping this interdisciplinary field. |
