Resumo

Laurie Anderson’s uses of technology in performance art suggest a possibility of smart subversions in a culture based on technology and mediatic systems. Anderson negotiates with such a cultural configuration and questions the notions of body, language and mediation, through her electronic tales, to resist to the “words of order” of the present and to product passwords towards its resingularization.
