CHORUS:

Two households, both alike in dignity
(In fair Verona, where we lay our scene)
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.
From forth the fatal loins of these two foes
A pair of star-cross’d lovers take their life
Whose misadventur’d piteous overthrows
Doth with their death bury their parents’ strife.
The fearful passage of their death-mark’d love
And the continuance of their parents’ rage,
Which, but their children’s end, nought could remove,
Is now the two hours traffic of our stage;
The which, if you with patient ears attend,
What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend.

Hello friends!

Just quickly wanted to let you know: we're going to start the digital performance of Romeo and Juliet tomorrow, Saturday the 18th at 7:00pm EST. The performance will begin at digitalperformative.blogspot.com.

Since you all are in my workgroup, if you have any feedback, maybe even a few brief sentences on what you thought/what your experience was, I would be very grateful-- no pressure, though, I know we're all busy!

There will be more details up on the site tonight about adding facebook friends, getting access to the sites, etc, so hopefully that shouldn't be a problem. I'll put all the directions up there.

Thanks again for all your helpful feedback in class, very appreciated and necessary!

See you all on Monday,

kate

Coming Soon!

I am currently entrenched in final papers, projects and myriad thoughts about the performance of digital things. In composition are:

-A bibliographic list of resources I've used and run across during this project

-The "score" of the actual project, including the hyperlink trail

-A ten-minute spoken presentation, to be given in at the final MA conference

-An Artist's Statement which contains a "best-of" list of all of the above, as well as personal and artistic reasons for the project

I'll be posting portions of these in the near future. In the meantime, take a look at danah boyd's dissertation. It's some interesting, and dare I say, relevant reading.
