Abstract

The developed research suggests the idea of technical operator as the main director of the visuality of the scene, by discussing the issues related to misuse of various technologies on stage. As a solution, it points to the concept of human-machine, created from the joint of the operator and the technical device as single and inseparable figure. It defines the operator as an artist who, imbued with the knowledge required for the live technical manipulation, transforms the machine into a generator of poetic power instead of mere marketable product. To emphasize this concept, in addition to theoretical research is proposed as an object of study, a practical experiment that appropriates the text The Tempest by William Shakespeare, through a survey and a redefinition of the archetypes found in the original version into imagery symbols created on scene.
