Body and Digitality: From early experiments to theater-making
Channel: Marco Donnarumma
Date: 05/11/2020

In this talk produced by Fronte Vacuo artists group, co-founder Marco Donnarumma discusses the relation of body and technology in the arts and how the body is at the center of a transdisciplinary avantgarde meshing media art, dance and theater; a set of practices that made possible much of the art we see today.
