Performance II is a three-channel experimental digital performance investigating how constructed systems in space inform one’s subjective experience. Through diaristic reflections, long-take improvisations, virtual collaborations, and fantasy, Neptune explores space as an abstract of codified systems that shape one’s modes of communication and perception.

In a virtual performance conducted via zoom, participants examine how the body, in proximity to or in the distance from an object or other persons, informs communication in virtual and natural spaces. As prompt, each participant reads a statement. Utilizing the rules of space proxemics, each participant reconfigured their body and words to meet their proxemic zones: Intimate, Personal, and Social.
