Dance tech books and articles

[Katherine Mezur]

I am reviewing a new text by Johannes Birringer. Has anyone out there read it? It is titled: Performance, Technology, and Science. I would love to hear from choreographers and/or engineers, tech/artists what you think of it. Steve Dixon also did a substantial work two years ago on New media Performance, and Susan Broadhurst and others have put together several volumes and I was wondering what the community's reactions or thoughts were on any of these publications? I would be very interested in hearing about books and articles that have been important to your work that deal with both performance and new media or technologies, immersive, interactive, online, in installations, in galleries and/or proscenium-based. thanks,
Katherine Mezur

still reading it... I will post some comments soon. Steve Dixon's book was a great study for me and the online database a very nice idea. I hope it will get updated...v.
