Show A Thing Follow Up/Update

Show a Thing was a really good experience for me. It was interesting to get multiple different perspectives on my project and the way it could pan out, and the resources/ideas presented to me were awesome. I steered the conversation with most of the guests towards the digital tool aspect of my proposal, some of the ideas or resources presented to me were:

  • https://www.blasttheory.co.uk/projects/ivy4evr/
  • https://theaterofwar.com/about
  • Streaming a live Theatre of the Oppressed workshop in VR using tools available at NYU Shanghai
  • Streaming Forum Theatre exercises to Twitch using trained actors who take suggestion from the chat
  • Using Zoom as a facilitation tool to do this digitally

And several others. At the moment I’m trying to process all of this information and how it could affect the development of my project, and finishing up the first version of the workshop I’m going to run tomorrow (April 10) at Utah State University.

I edited it to include a section on Image Theatre in case I’m short on time, where my prototype only focused on Forum Theatre. I wrote scenes/scenarios for each, and included a bibliography.

From here I plan to edit the workshop based on my findings there, and hopefully adapt it to a semi-digital format to attempt in New York sometime between April 18-25th.

    I’m extremely impressed with your writing skills as well as with the layout on your blog. Is this a paid theme or did you modify it yourself? Either way keep up the excellent quality writing, it is rare to see a nice blog like this one today..

    Thanks , I have recently been searching for information about this topic for ages and yours is the best I have discovered so far. But, what about the conclusion? Are you sure about the source?
