Every now and then an image, a theme or an issue materialises as an edition of RealTime takes shape, spookily permeating its pages. Everywhere in RealTime 93 it’s the body: shrinkwrapped (
Shrink, cover), mimicking (
Chuncheon International Mime Festival), apocalyptic (
Black Marrow), ecstatic (
Miracle), regional (
On Edge), indigenous/cosmopolitan (
Burning Daylight), reversing (
Hye Yeon Nam), participatory (
Tank Man Tango), punk
(We’re Living on Dog Food), doubled (
Geminoid Hl-1),
superhuman, and as performance engine (
Run), music (
Soundstream) and land (
Garma). Neither fetishistic nor narcissistic, these explorations (
Thinking Through the Body) and performative states of being are indicators of art as lived in the body, locally, globally and interculturally.
