Event Details

The Moderate asks what it takes to keep the internet “safe,” and what that work does to the people doing it. This talkback goes inside the making of a production that treats digital life as a stage language. Projections, Zoom, and FaceTime are built into the storytelling, shifting their scale, location, and presence in real time as performers move through space. How do live and mediated performance get choreographed together, how does sound and light help to create the feeling of always being clocked-in to our digital realm, and how does the production handle the unsettling reality of what moderators are asked to witness? This conversation will deconstruct these questions, and more.
