“The properties of the interface, and its effect on the user’s capacity for personal expression, was an initial concern of the earliest artists working with technology. My piece “Path Dependence” revisits this fundamental idea, for the purpose of re-framing the use of an interface as a performance. Performance in this context is not necessarily an action presented to an audience, but in the more abstract sense, an action observed while executed. Three instances of the user’s cursor movements are recorded and replayed by the mechanism, placing the user in the context of a network between one’s past and present actions, and between performer and audience.”
