This document provides biographical information about Camille Baker and an overview of her PhD research at SMARTlab focusing on using mobile technologies and wearable devices in performance contexts to explore concepts of liveness, presence, and experience. It describes her background in dance, art galleries, film production, and music. The document outlines her PhD research questions and provides examples of workshops she conducted collecting mobile video from participants. It shows the development of biosensing software, smart garments prototypes, and mobile video software. Related work in other artists integrating video, biosensing, and mobile/participatory performance is also mentioned.

Live Documentary: Talking Through a Thesis Conceptjfische2
This presentation was given at the orientation session for MIT's Comparative Media Studies program as an opportunity to present my early thesis research thinking in an open form for conversation with my classmates. Multiple research trajectories from theories of liveness (beginning with Raymond Williams in television history), telepresence (as it appeared in the engineering and robotics realm) and documentary interaction intersect to crystallize in a single question: what is the meaning and value of *live* documentary?

This presentation, created by Syed Faiz ul Hassan, explores the profound influence of media on public perception and behavior. It delves into the evolution of media from oral traditions to modern digital and social media platforms. Key topics include the role of media in information propagation, socialization, crisis awareness, globalization, and education. The presentation also examines media influence through agenda setting, propaganda, and manipulative techniques used by advertisers and marketers. Furthermore, it highlights the impact of surveillance enabled by media technologies on personal behavior and preferences. Through this comprehensive overview, the presentation aims to shed light on how media shapes collective consciousness and public opinion.

Tina Gonsalves is one of those artists, whose work is most similar in intention, nature and
outcomes to mine (although I just discovered her).
FEEL:TRACE : responsive biofeedback installation (Australia 2006) :
“…is a psychophysiologically responsive video installation synthesizing art, neuroscience
and technology. The project explores new, more embodied languages of interactive and
emotional communication, investigating the inter-relationship of the internal body and the
external world. Using biosensors, the participant’s heart rate responses are monitored.

‘sensitive’ products and technologies.
As part of SKIN, we have developed two ‘Soft

high tech materials and Electronic Textile

The dresses show emotive technology and
how the body and the near environment can
use pattern and color change to interact and
predict the emotional state.
