Abstract
Co-operative workshops between theatre and media artists realised since 1999 show, that the performative use of technology can have today three functions in a cultural education of competencies in dealing with digitally supported realities. These are (1) the training of the body as a fluid medium, (2) the construction and the embodiment of a transitory identity and (3) the reflection of this human self-understanding, which is enabled by the ambivalence of the present concept of performativity, constituted on the one hand out of a contingent and transitive and on the other hand out of an intentional process of acting.
