Abstract

ABSTRACTIn 15-minute slots, theatre company Invisible Ink invited participants to enter a room by themselves, make a call on a rotary phone, and tell an answering machine about a terrible thing they had done and how they felt about it.

I examine this moment as an instance of rupture in the disciplinary processes of self-curation through the strategic use of intermediality.
