@Helen: I am still interested in the idea that social media (and that includes this list) is in fact an intermedial exchange & process of co-authorship, that we are in fact, together, authoring/constructing/generating a collective body of knowledge via this exchange. If you were to go back and read through the archives of NetBehaviour I am certain there is a ³cultural record² (to use the words of Vannevar Bush) with a narrative flow that captures a ³story² of the time and place and people involved. I consider social media (generally and perhaps idealistically speaking) to be expressive, performative (not proconsumative), and participatory in equal measure, narrative in a non-hierarchical structure, a theater of words and ideas. that's quite nice :) On 4/03/15 5:09 16PM, Patrick Lichty wrote: > > > > How about ³Performience²? > > > > > > > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of helen varley > jamieson > Sent: Wednesday, March 04, 2015 9:45 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [NetBehaviour] my Netartizen contribution > > > > > > "prosumer" is not a word for actor+audience, it's a word for > producer+consumer, which is about product and consumption, rather than > relationship & experience. > > i have long hunted for a good word for this - for audiences that are > participating in a really creative way in a work - & i don't just mean the > "interactivity" of pressing a button or something like that. i mean > co-authoring in a way that they can insert their own creativity & > alter/influence the work. i have written about the "intermedial audience", as > a way to understand the role of the audience in cyberformance & potentially > other digital art contexts. > > > > The concept of intermediality offers a way to approach an audience that is as > unfinished and (r)evolutionary as the work it is engaging with.
