Mike Pearson , founder of Brith Gof Theater Company, is one of Europe's most distinguished performance artists. His thirty year career has focused on physical performance and site specific work that ranges from large-scale epic pieces set in disused factories, quarries and railway stations, to intimate solo performances that deal with memory, family, place and belonging. Mike is an expert on English folk traditions as well as Japanese Noh theater, a pioneer of theater anthropology and performance theory. All his work poses questions of changing media practices, the character of performance, its documentation, relation to its own history, as well as to other fields and artistic practice - core concerns for our workshop in new media. His book Theatre/Archaeology, written with Stanford's Michael Shanks, was published in 2001 and has attracted great interest as an example of genuinely hybrid and transdisciplinary thinking and practice.

Mike Pearson is Professor of Performance at University of Wales Aberystwyth.
