Kaushal, V., 2025.

Repercussion

Output Type:Performance
Venue:Mayfield Park, Manchester
Dates:14/9/2025

Repercussion, originally Dpercussion, has been a significant cultural event in Manchester since 1997, evolving from a response to the 1996 IRA bombing into a major platform for diverse music and art. As artist-in-residence for this year's edition, I developed a series of performances that integrated interactive video design, LED screens, and stage setups, responding dynamically to inputs from the audience and performers. My approach, rooted in British cybernetics, focused on feedback loops and playful technology to create immersive visual environments.

With an audience of 20,000 people in attendance, the project contributed to the development of responsive performance practices, demonstrating the role of technology in live events to enhance audience engagement and interaction. By exploring the intersection of art, technology, and audience participation, this residency adds to the growing body of research on interactive environments in performance, enriching cultural discourse and practice.
