Zubin Kanga presents the premiere performance of Laura Bowler’s SHOW(ti)ME, an investigation into the multiplicities of the physical and virtual self through the lens of piano performance and practice. Excavating the intimate relationship between performance and instrument, SHOW(ti)ME gradually draws back the mask of performance, revealing the performer’s vulnerabilities through an explosive magnification of the minutia of piano practice.
The performing self is extended and contorted through a collaging of multimedia practices: live camera, pre-recorded camera, MiMU gloves, live and fixed electronics.
