What kind of relationship do we have with artificial beings (avatars, puppets, robots, etc.)? What does it mean to mirror ourselves in them, to perform them or to play trial identity games with them? Actor & Avatar addresses these questions from artistic and scholarly angles.
Contributions on the making of »technical others« and philosophical reflections on artificial alterity are flanked by neuroscientific studies on different ways of perceiving living persons and artificial counterparts. The contributors have achieved a successful artistic-scientific collaboration with extensive visual material.

We felt that research on improvisation in theater has to catch up and so we invited 10 advanced researchers of the field to present and discuss their topics. The result was an interesting mix of methods, approaches and academic conven tions. As expected the contributions were quite heterogeneous, since there is no such thing as a “theory of improvisational theater” or even a consensus of which discipline should investigate on it: Psychology? Theater studies? Linguistics? This book compiles most of the contributions of IMPRO TALKS and makes them accessible for an interested public and for further research.

Theater Vermittlung Schule | Mira Sack, Anton Rey, Stefan Schöbi (Hg.) [E-Book PDF]
Theater und Schule erschienen angesichts ihrer unterschiedlichen Strukturen und Arbeitsweisen als ziemlich gegensätzliches Paar: hier die engen Leitplanken der Lehrpläne, dort die Freiheit der Kunst. Dennoch verfolgen die beiden Institutionen vergleichbare Ziele, setzen zu deren Erreichung aber unterschiedliche Instrumente ein. Der Auftrag der kulturellen Bildung und Kulturvermittlung an die nachwachsende Generation kann jedoch nur von Schule und Theater gemeinsam geleistet werden.
