Works like Rebecca Schneider\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s\u00c2\u00a0<em>Performing Remains<\/em> show how performance is neither a stable, enduring object nor a neatly vanishing event, but rather remains in complex and ever-shifting modes.\u00c2\u00a0 Performance documentation is thus a volatile and significant place for questioning authoritative histories and destabilizing fixed identities and hierarchies of knowledge. In this paper, I argue that the remains of the voice are particularly tricky and valuable materials for this work.<\/p>\n<p>This paper focuses specifically on the video and performance work of ASM Kobayashi, a young New York-based artist. Her work uses found documents to restage both intimate and banal encounters between \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcreal\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 people. Drawing particularly on her extensive collection of audio tapes found in secondhand answering machines, Kobayashi\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s work pairs the seemingly \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcauthentic\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 voices of strangers with elaborately acted-out visual re-enactments. In so doing, Kobayashi reveals both the fluidity of singular identity, and the labour that goes into the reverberation of authenticity.<\/p>\n<p>VISIT interdisciplinaryvoicestudies.wordpress.com for details.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Johanna Linsley will be presenting\u00c2\u00a0DOCUMENTING VOICE, REPRODUCING AUTHENTICITY at the inaugural symposium for the Centre for Interdisciplinary Voice Studies will be held at the Centre for Creative Collaboration, London, on Saturday 21st September 2013.
