• This site really needs to be your first stop if you are new to thinking about the use of technology in the classroom - regardless of the subject or learning area!

A New View of the Theatre

• Presented "Live" by Donald A. Drapeau, Head, Department of Theatre Arts on August 4, 1997 at Elmhurst College as part of the TLA pre-conference ATHE Conference titled "Ensuring Your Future".

• Avatar/Body/Collision - an exploration of how technology is changing our definition of theatre

Active Worlds - Educational Universe

• An Virtual Avatar world - designed as an educational environment.  An interesting place to explore.

Adrift

• A multi-location performance spectacle

Ananova

• An experiment in creating a virtual actor - in this case a news presenter who/that is generated by programming and text.  Ananova is not simply an animated cartoon - she is responding to the news she is reading.  Check out the video.

Animating the Language Machine:  Computers and Performance

• This paper explores a range of inter-disciplinary discourses which consider the online writing space as a unique performance medium with characteristic protocols. Drawing on contemporary performance theory, literary criticism, and communication theory, the paper proposes that technologists, academics, and artists are developing a lingua franca to explore the technical and expressive properties of the new "language machines" and their hypertextual environments.

• Recent West End and Broadway productions such as Phantom of the Opera, Sunset Boulevard, and The Lion King have become popular, in part, because of their use of technology for the creation of spectacular effects. Most of the basic techniques used in the modern theatre were developed or were polished in the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. At the beginning of the seventeenth century opera evolved from a courtly and scholarly activity to a popular entertainment, in part, because of its use technology for the creation of scenic spectacle.

• ATHEMOO is a virtual space and professional community where people interested in theatre come to exchange information, have meetings and learn about MOO technology and its uses for performance, teaching, and other classroom projects. The MOO (or MUD) is one of the earliest interactive environments used on the web - it is just coming into its own as a classroom tool.  The ATHE have implemented an amazing system that is very simple to use - users can create interactive environments to explore a range of possibilities.    Several experimental productions have been done, including NetSeduction and Scaffolding Downs.   Try typing @go kimbo  to see a description of my Virtual Classroom.

• A Key Centre for Teaching and Research of the Australian Research Council's Centres Program
  Providing research, teaching and training programs to assist in developing informed and innovative cultural and media policies that are appropriate to our changing needs and circumstances. Some very interesting abstracts and commentaries - particularly on Cyber or Techno culture

Australian Network for Art & Technology 

• ...Australia's peak network and advocacy body for artists working with technology. The role of ANAT is to advocate, support and promote the arts and artists in the interaction between art, technology and science, nationally and internationally. Since its inception in 1985 ANAT has been at the forefront of the movement to position artists as active participants in the 'information age'. The organisation does not have a 'venue' (except our online presence) and works closely with other organisations across Australia and internationally to realise projects. 

AWABA 

• Awaba, the online virtual world for Australian kids.   (it is a little over a floppy disk in size) and execute it. That will install the program and place an icon on your desktop. Anytime you are online you can double-click that icon to open up the Awaba virtual world. The first time you enter, you will be a tourist, but there is a large "Register" button on the top left of the browser which will let you become a citizen (there is no cost involved). As a citizen you will have a lot more gestures available to your avatar (an avatar is the body you wear in a virtual world). 

• A project that brings together Drama students from 4 schools across the globwe - it began as Birmingham, England meeting Birmingham, Alabama and began to grow from there.  Conducted by Steve Davis and Ann Parouty (whose compnay "emote" did most of the cyber construction on the project) -  A transnational, Internet based project, Birmingham2 links artists and young people in Birmingham, UK and Birmingham, Alabama. Working with a range of art forms including drama, writing, photography, video and music, Birmingham2 puts the Internet through its paces as participants ask those age old questions - Who am I? What am I? Where am I going?... And what should I wear?

• A collection of interactive agents in the form of computer programmed "intelligences".  Why not try downloading a small bot program - then engage in a roleplay discussion with it - use the resultant transcript as a playscript to improvise around.  Alice is a very easy Bot to get to know - download her and her friends now!.

• The culmination of the Brain Opera experience is the 45-minute Final Performance. Here, a 3-movement composition ties together the project's many musical, visual, and textual strands into a unified tapestry. Three performers shape, select, and interpret precomposed and audience-created elements, using specially-designed hyperinstruments: the Sensor Chair (which translates wireless body movement into sound); the Gesture Wall (a modification of the same instrument from the Mind Forest); and the Digital Baton (which combines pointing, squeezing/selecting, and motion sensing). A large curved screen and multiple projectors allows a constant flow of images to be presented in coordination with the music, illustrating Minsky's words, providing counterpoint to the music, or illuminating the actions of the performers. The audience is also invited to dance on a Sensor Carpet during the Finale, adding sound to the richness and intensity at the end of the work. 

CandT - (Collar and Tie) - Cambat

• Cambat is a new word. Cambat is unique - it's a verb created through drama, reflecting an aspect of young people's lives today. And because its a verb the only way to find out what it means is to experience it - through action.  ADV Security is the fictional Closed Circuit Television Company at the heart of the meaning of the new word. Click on www.adv-security.co.uk to transfer to the site where the drama unfolds. However, to the outside world ADV Security looks like a real CCTV company - only by starting from here do you know that its all fiction!  If you want to do more than just look at the site read our User's Notes to discover how the website can be used to create live drama.  This site really is worth a look - any drama teacher could do it on a basic school network - minimal technical knowledge required - if you can read instructions you can create something like this yourself.

• Acronym:  PUPPET
• Summary: The objective of the PUPPET project in the field of early learning is to develop and investigate the value of a new virtual reality environment, the Virtual Puppet Theatre, (VPT), based on a theoretical framework of "learning through externalisation" (Scaife & Rogers, 1996). PUPPET aims at extending the current forms of early learning through play by developing a range of novel individual as well as collaborative interactive environments  - using a theatre metaphor.

eserver - Cyber Folder

• We stand often problematically at the intersection of technology, culture, and nature.  We are creating nature: the boundaries between the virtual and real are becoming increasingly confused. We're becoming less self-conscious, on the one hand, of the pretense of our virtual worlds, and, on the other, more aware of how technology inscribes our conceptions of the natural. We're still trying to negotiate our way between the artificial, clumsy interface and the unconscious, fully interactive experience.  A great collection of articles - not necessarily addressing Drama directly but informed and insightful readers will find plenty to consider.

Florimène at the Court of Charles I

• There are many (potential) applications of virtual environment technologies and techniques in the world of performing arts.  These range from the initial design stage  to the final performance.  The performing arts represent an exaggerated mirror of reality and many of the tasks within the field are larger than life versions of everyday activities.  Some parallels are more obvious than others such as collaborative set design.  However phases of production such as the rehearsals are variations on subjects  like training, co-ordination and movement and even therapy.  Research of shared virtual environments (VEs) for the production of theatre shows suggests that theatre applications have both specific requirements and features for presence.
