Description
In contemporary theatre and performance, the transformative impact of digital technologies is undeniable, yet the integration of augmented reality through a smartphone application in live performance remains relatively unexplored. Coining the term ‘augmented performance’, this research addresses the challenge of blurring the binaries of live and virtual, authenticity and spectacle to create authentic narratives that evoke wonder, curiosity, and meaning-making. Guided by creative practice, the research identifies key components of augmented performance and establishes an Authenticity Framework. The framework serves as a valuable tool for artists and researchers, facilitating the creation and analysis of augmented performances.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
