Viagem a um Real Desfamiliarizado: Performatividade da Tecnologia na Cena Contemporânea

Abstract

This paper aims to reflect on some of the themes developed in a master’s research that seeks to investigate and to describe the impact of digital technologies on the forms of action in the contemporary scene. In this paper, we make a framework that intends to elucidate how the technology begins to present a "performativity" on the scene, which is an idea inspired by Professor Josette Feral. In order to demonstrate how the technology, in an ever more prominent position, passes from the backstage to the scenic area, we present, from the ideas of Meyerhold and Piscator, some of the aspects — like the displacements between the fictional and the real — that we have identified as crucial and precursory of a new way of conceiving the not human presence on the scene and then to reiterate it in current examples that are briefly exposed here through the “meta-mise-en-scène” of the groups Phila 7, Wooster Group and Ubu.
