SUMMARY:Performance:MA in Media Arts Thesis Performance: SinYu Deng
DESCRIPTION:*Bare Display* is an avant-garde interactive immersive dance performance\, set to unfold in the Brehm Technology Suite on April 13 and 14 at 7:00 pm. Presented by SinYu Deng\, candidate for the MA in Media Arts in the Department of Performing Arts Technology.\n\nThis provocative piece delves deep into the commodification and objectification of the human body within society\, presenting a critical examination of how bodies are standardized\, traded\, and valued as mere objects awaiting utilitarian use. It confronts the audience with the unsettling reality of bodies transformed into standardized commodities\, subject to scrutiny\, control\, and consumption.\n\nThrough the medium of dance\, performers in *Bare Display* become the observed\, symbolizing victims confined within the spectacle of the stage. This performance serves as a stark mirror\, reflecting the harsh truths about societal norms and the commodification practices that dehumanize and depersonalize the individual. Incorporating a blend of sound\, visual effects\, and motion capture technology\, *Bare Display* not only challenges but also immerses the audience in a narrative centered around the 'body' as the main axis of the exhibition.\n\nThis daring exploration invites viewers to reconsider the value and autonomy of the human form in a digitized and scrutinized world. *Bare Display* aims to provoke thought\, stir debate\, and inspire a reevaluation of the roles that bodies play in a consumer-driven culture\, highlighting the often overlooked implications of treating bodies as exhibits to be observed\, judged\, and utilized.

SUMMARY:Performance:Cheryl Wheeler
DESCRIPTION:\"Strong poetry\, complex melodies\, clever wit.\"—Sing Out!\n \nIt has always seemed as if there were two Cheryl Wheelers\, with fans of the New England songwriter relishing watching the two tussle for control of the mic. There is poet Cheryl\, writer of some of the prettiest\, most alluring and intelligent ballads on the modern folk scene. And there is her evil twin\, comic Cheryl\, a militant trend defier and savagely funny social critic. The result is a series of delightful contrasts\, for really Cheryl Wheeler is a woman of many musical personalities—heart-wrenching romantic balladeer\, marvelous observational humorist\, poet of ordinary New England scenes and people\, committed activist\, irascible grump. Cheryl’s special guest tonight is her frequent partner in crime\, New York songwriter Kenny White.\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4376/4377 for more detail.
