Chatroulette: Discipline and Punish, 2011
Telematic Performance
On Saturday, April 30th, 2011, I conducted a performative reading from Michel Foucault's "Discipline and Punish" in the online video chat space "Chatroulette". The reading was specifically focused on the section of the text detailing Foucault's consideration of Bentham's theory of the panopticon. The five minute reading was part of the Low Lives 3 International Exhibition of Online Performance. I performed a four-hour version of the piece, on Friday, May 13th, 2011, as part of Daisy Chain: An Anarchic Performance Event, Antena Gallery, Chicago.
