- Performance as a Tool for Stroke Recovery integrates participatory performance methods with interactive technology to help stroke survivors explore physical and social identities, creating novel collaborations between computer scientists, performance academics, and disability communities. This ongoing 10-year project draws on a vast body of interdisciplinary research including public performances, public conversations, workshops, technological experimentation, and engagement with stroke communities. The project frames disability as a source for technological and performative innovation and an ethos which has wide-ranging applications for therapeutic innovation and the potential to shift paradigms around neurodiversity. Partnerships with National Stroke Association and Wellcome Trust ensured widespread dissemination.?
