The Body, the Moving Image and the Puppet: the contemporary scene arising from [in]animated forms

Abstract

This article seeks to find possible forms of scenic creations originating from the crossing of technologies considered antagonistic, as is the case of the body on stage, the puppet and the projection mapping. The investigation intends to question historical scenic hierarchies, in such way as to allow the fusion between the three elements above referred through the perspective in which subtracting any of them from the theatrical doing is considered impossible. Such investigation will be developed through the analysis of R.O.O.M (Re-organization Of Material), a piece by the German company Meinhardt Krauss Feigl (Cinematographic Theatre).
