a rimini protokoll theatre-maze
pp. 119-127
Abstract
Belvis Pons explores the attributes of the immersive in Rimini Protokoll's intermedial piece through the thought-provoking approach of the theatre-maze. Focusing on the ethics of co-design, the chapter draws attention to the ethnographic and participatory methods used in the creative process, questioning where the limits lie in working with non-professional performers and the implications of mediatising intimacy through technology. Outdoors not only challenges the theatrical as art by proposing innovative ways of accounting but also interrogates reality by inscribing its creative process in the everyday. "Outdoors: a Rimini Protokoll theatre-maze" reveals how the immersive appears as a method of inquiry that serves to confront realities.
