Interrupt
Performed at the Metropolitan Art Studio, November 2000.
Interrupt, was a retro-engineered multimedia performance installation where audiences, performers and technology could interact. Resisting the temptation to put the latest shiny new technology on display (not that our budget allowed much temptation), Interrupt explored the underside of progress - meltdown, misfire and miscommunication. Within the performance space, audiences participated in the operation of a mechanized, yet functioning dystopia where ‘high’ technology served the most crude ends.
Interrupt was directed and programmed by John Berendzen and created by over a dozen Liminal company members and invited artists.
