Fear of Flight: Expanded Presence and Inter-sensory Gesture in Multimedia Performance
Freida Abtan · Electronic workshops in computing · 2019
Fear of Flight investigates the intersection of surround audiovisual composition and live performance to draw meaningful conclusions about the experience of presence and the role of the performer within immersive media composition. Among the theoretical issues that contributed to Fear of Flight ’s development are the impact of immersion on the perception of compositional dialog, and the mechanisms by which presence may be expanded and dislocated from a performing body through mediation.
