<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face=Garamond><SPAN lang=EN-CA style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">With accelerating momentum throughout the twentieth century and into the twenty-first, the development of new media technologies has had broad and deep transformative effects upon contemporaneous cultures and ideologies. Specifically, despite early (and enduring) efforts of entrenchment, these evolutionary tensions have thoroughly infiltrated theatrical practice and theory, with profound implications. As artists and theorists explore new integrations of media and performance, they simultaneously question, reinterpret, problematize, and defy existing boundaries between art forms, between media, between “liveness” and recording, and between “presence” and representation. </SPAN></FONT></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face=Garamond><SPAN lang=EN-CA style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">In <I>Intermediality in Theatre and Performance</I> (2006), Freda Chapple and Chiel Kattenbelt define intermediality as “a powerful and potentially radical force, which operates in-between performer and audience; in-between theatre, performance and other media; and in-between realities […] In addition, intermediality is positioned in-between several <I>conceptual frameworks</I> and <I>artistic/philosophical movements</I>.” The effects of intermediality, they contend, include “new modes of representation; new dramaturgical strategies; new ways of structuring and staging words, images and sounds; new ways of positioning bodies in time and space; new ways of creating temporal and spatial interrelations” (11-12). In addition to these formal and conceptual characteristics, however—perhaps even more definitively—intermediality may be understood as a cultural and ideological positioning and basis for strategy. According to Klaus-Peter Busse, “intermedia is not performance, but performative action” (<I>Intermedia: Enacting the Liminal</I> [2005] 264). </SPAN></FONT></P>
