Handheld Devices: Phoning

Handheld Devices- Phoning is the latest in a series of works by Inner Fish in which performers use only human or battery-powered hand-held machines. Phoning sources the smartphone to invert the common dynamics of distance created in a screen-mediated culture. Performances are five-minute moments in a portable closet with a random passerby.
