Notes
1 In the English version of the performance that I saw, the ‘voice’ of Geminoid F was Long's own recorded voice.
2 The android is a non-locomoting, teleoperated machine equipped with motorized actuators powered by air pressure that allowed its face and upper torso to move.
3 See Parker-Starbuck's book Cyborg Theatre: Corporeal/ Technological intersections in multimedia performance.
4 Lifeform-blind casting calls for the indiscriminate casting of humans and robots in plays. Humans can then play parts written for robots and robots can play parts written for humans. An example of lifeform-blind casting is Elizabeth Meriwether's 2006 play Heddatron where robots take on roles written for humans in the re-staging of Ibsen's Hedda Gabler.
