The idea of interaction associated with performance art has had a direct effect on new media art, comment.
This story had police and a chimpanzee. What more could you ask for?
After watching this storytelling, I question the actual interaction @ happenings. A happening does not have to have interaction from the crowd, but how important is an audience to performance art? Can there be passive happenings as well as active? The way the event was described portrayed several artists working at the same time, but with mutually exclusive intentions. Were happenings done to this degree with a more collaborate goal?
In response to Melissa's post about the audience. What does the audience contribute/limit with it's presence/absence in terms of new media art? It seems that because of interactive technologies (CAVE environments, spatial sound, gesture/haptic devices) that the audience is able to take on a more active, and more spontaneous role.
