| Abstract: | Performance is material. From ballet to burlesque shows, stage plays to flash mobs, piano concerts to poetry readings, performance necessarily includes and involves the material world. It is because of and through materialism that a performance is enacted and performed, engaged and interacted with, analyzed and admired, studied and shared, preserved and remembered. Performance is, in other words, intimately intertwined with materialism. Documentation—that is, documents and practices with them—is one important way in which many performances are materialized and constituted. Documents are not unimportant or disposable ‘things’ that simply serve to convey information; documents, and practices with them, help materialize and constitute, not just convey, information.
