“Liveness Revisited”
7:15 a.m. - 9:15 a.m. PDT (San Francisco) / 9:15 a.m. - 11:15 a.m. CDT (Chicago) / 10:15 a.m. - 12:15 p.m. EDT (New York)
Lecture by Philip Auslander
The focus of the institute will shift from digital historiography to media and performance theory under the tutelage of visiting faculty member Dr. Philip Auslander (Georgia Tech), a performance theorist famous for his seminal interrogation of the concept of “liveness” in the age of media. Dr. Auslander will begin with a lecture on the problematic relationship between liveness and mediatization, tracing the way his thinking about this issue has evolved in the twenty years since he first published his ground-breaking book. He will then lead a seminar that guides the participants through a close analysis of his texts and a critical reflection on their own intuitions about the ontology and phenomenology of live performance and media.

The University of Georgia’s Department of Theatre and Film Studies presents the NEH Institute 2018: Digital Technologies in Theatre and Performance Studies livestreaming from commons-based peer produced HowlRound TV network at howlround.tv on Monday 18 June - Friday 29 June.

This institute is aimed at college and university faculty eager to integrate digital technologies into their curricula, and who would like to gain a deeper understanding of the technologies and techniques to make this possible. The program assumes no prior expertise in digital media. Through presentations and hands-on workshops with some of the country’s leading experts on digital performance and scholarship, the institute’s participants will gain valuable techniques and experience in how best to integrate digital methods and tools in teaching theatre studies and performance practice.

The first week focuses on the impact of digital technologies on performance scholarship, and the second, on digital performance practices. Both weeks balance lectures, seminars, and hands-on workshops. Participants will leave the institute with specific exercises, lesson plans, and references to support continued development in their classrooms and their home institutions.

The institute was jointly initiated by the leadership of the Association for Theatre in Higher Education (ATHE) and the American Society for Theatre Research (ASTR).
