Collaborative Embodied Performance
Ecologies of Skill
«By tracing how mindful expert performance can be shaped by ecological, social interpersonal, technological, and cultural factors, the essays collected in this book provide wonderfully in-depth accounts of skilled action in a diverse array of contexts and practices, from theatrical arts to martial arts. We find here important analyses of learning and skill acquisition, but also insights into live professional performance and training.»

This book brings together scholarship in performance studies, cognitive science, sociology, literature, anthropology, psychology, architecture, philosophy and sport science to ask how tightly knit collaboration works. Innovative methodological approaches are applied to detailed case studies from martial arts, tango, social interaction, Body Weather, human-AI music composition, Front-of-House at the Globe Theatre, and failing at handstands. Each investigation exposes performance and theory as mutually revealing, informative and captivating.
Short chapters fall into thematic clusters exploring embodied collaboration, cognition, and coordination, followed by commentaries from leading scholars in performance studies and cognitive science. Each brings to light different facets of the performance ecology present in the collaborative moment(s), equipping performance makers, students and researchers with theoretical, methodological and practical inspiration to delve deeper into their own embodied practices and critical thinking.

«In dancing the tango, watching a live performance, or constructing a site-specific art installation, individuals synergistically and seamlessly engage in complex collaborative actions. How can mind, body and environment mesh to achieve shared goals? Bicknell and Sutton’s superb anthology is essential reading for anyone interested in better understanding thought in action in group endeavours.»
