This year’s convergence, Collectivities in TransMigration: Animating Bodies Across Borders gathered scholars, artists and activists to explore the concept of transmigration and collectivism through discussion panels, performances and workshops. As a co-convener for the workshop on Digital Collectivities, I explored along with my colleagues, the effect digital technology has on mediating the experience of the real. The space of translation between digital realms and physical ones parallels the sense of duality within a transmigrating body. Through collaboration and experimentation between co-convener and participants, digital media was explored as a tool of dislocation and as a self surveillance device that extends the body and parallels our consciousness. This workshop staged an exploration with theory, materials, technology, the body and space. A series of public interventions and an experimental performance allowed the digital collectivities group to make an installation, paralleling the dislocating sense of the mediation of digital media with the narration of a migrating body. Our objective was to connect different times and spaces through the web, as well as to include physical interaction with an urban environment, person-to-person engagements, and digital possibilities.
