Making of Monsterhood. The Making of performs a live interaction between the archive and the audience, between a moving and a writing practice, between the performers bodies and digital technologies.Through a live encounter with the archive, Murray creates a monster or hybrid of contrasting temporalities, modalities and materials. The Making of Monsterhood. The Making of wavers between documentation and invention, between conservation and transformation, and asks how might a writing practice move?
