Performer Training and Technology employs philosophical approaches
to technology, including postphenomenology and Heidegger’s
thinking, to examine the way technology manifests, influences and
becomes used in performer training discourse and practice. The book
offers in-depth discussions of present and past performer training
practices through a lens that has never been applied before;
considers the employment of key digital artefacts; and develops a
series of analytical tools that can be useful in scholarly and
practical explorations. An array of intriguing subjects are covered
including the role of electric lights in Stanislavsky’s work on
concentration; the use of handheld tools, such as sticks in
Zarrilli’s psychophysical training and Meyerhold’s
Biomechanics; the emergence of new forms of training in relation to
motion capture technology; and the way the mobile phone complicates
notions and practices of attention in learning and training
contexts. This book is of vital relevance to performer training
scholars and practitioners; theatre, performance, and dance
scholars and students; and especially those interested in
philosophies of technology.
