Performance, Environments, and Material Culture - CUL341
This unit examines how performance brings about and presents its effects, not just through visual/aural and textual means, but through bodies, objects, spaces, and situations. Students consider aspects of contemporary living in material culture and environments, analysing how objects are seen to signify one's identity, social status, or life experiences. CUL341 explores the idea of 'the human as object'in a material environment and 'the object as performer', and applies new understandings of the human-object relationship to performance making. The time spent in class consists approximately 70 per cent production exercise, and 30 per cent production analysis and theoretical study. Students are expected to work in groups for their production practices.
