Bookperformance [equally Performancebook] is a term coined by Cy Mirol in 2011. Deliberately written as a single word, it manifests the compossibilty of book and performance through “holding space for life’s unfolding authorship”. It is embodied as spontaneous co-creative texts and acts, including sonic and visual forms, where multi-sensory perception leads enaction. This way, it fosters life’s co-creative nature that enchances the understanding of actual orientation and textual resonance, connecting individual and societal insights. Rooted in love as life’s essence, it emphasizes “we are all one” through shared authority, diversity, and transparency. Through co-creativity, it showcases the weird and absurd transformation of a reader into an author, of a tree into paper, and of a manuscript into a book. “Bookperformance Manifest”, an outcome of Mirol’s MA research on self-reflexive works, constitutes seven thresholds that form the basis for her PhD research extending conceptual stance of Bookperformance as a practice-theory on “soundscapes of authorship” at UGent and KASK.
