1 'Like a Chained Man's Bruise': The Mediated Body in 'Eight Songs for a Mad King' and 'Anatomy Theatre' T. Nikki Cesare , 2006 single work criticism
— Appears in: Theatre Journal , October vol. 58 no. 3 2006; (p. 437-457)
'Through an analysis of two recent productions by the New York-based new-music group the International Contemporary Ensemble, this article considers the means by which the mediated body, technologically and otherwise, enables a reimagination of the relationships between traditional theatre, contemporary music, and music theatre. A new production of Sir Peter Maxwell Davies's 1969 Eight Songs for a Mad King, in which the King's image is projected onto a video screen in real-time, and a workshop of composer David Lang and artist Mark Dion's recent collaborative project, Anatomy Theater (2005), in which a hanged woman's body is publicly dissected in an eighteenth-century English dissection theatre, both move toward a means to consider the theatricalization of the musical body onstage and the blurring of genres within technologically mediated live performance.' - from Theatre Journal on Project Muse website
