==Wearable Tech== With the advancements in lightweight microchips, wireless capabilities, sensors and motion tracking technology,<ref name= Birringer>Birringer, J. & Danjoux, M. (2009). Wearable performance, Digital Creativity, 20:1-2, 95-113, DOI: 10.1080/14626260902868095</ref> new mediums in digital art and performance have become possible. Technology has the capability to augment and manipulate reality as well as audience or viewer perception. Motion tracking suits are used in creating 3D renders of animated characters for film and video games.<ref name= Callesen>Callesen, J. & Nilsen, K. (2004). From lab to stage: practice-based research in performance, Digital Creativity, 15:1, 32-38, DOI: 10.1076/digc.15.1.32.28157</ref> The animation or CGI produced can be edited and adjusted before viewing, but research into real time rendering for live performance art is being streamlined through the use of artificial intelligence, automation, and programing.<ref name= Callesen/> Live renders are similarly used in the metaverse to create more realistic avatar movement and expression.<ref>Jang D., Yang D., Jang D., Choi B,. Jin T., Lee S. (2023). MOVIN: Real‐time Motion Capture using a Single LiDAR. Computer Graphics Forum. 2023;42(7):1-12. doi:10.1111/cgf.14961</ref> Further implications of wearable technology include audio and music production. Laurie Anderson is a performance artist who used a suit equipped with amplified tactile sensors. She used her movements to create music, as various body parts were assigned different percussive or instrumental sounds and tones when hit or moved.<ref name= Birringer/> Similar to this musical tech is the SOMI-1 device as used in the dance performance entitled “My body is an instrument” by: Mike Tyus and Luca Renzi.<ref>Brown, I. (2023, October 10). “My body is an instrument” Somi-1 performance by Mike Tyus and Luca Renzi. YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MSQLX71mcY</ref> This piece of technology was designed by the company Instrument of Things; the SOMI-1 is a small proprioceptive disk that tracks movement and translates it into sound. <ref>Instruments of Things.
