This article considers the new and multiple relationships of the senses and related perceptual and cognitive processes which characterise contemporary performance integrating new technologies. Focusing on the corresponding effects on corporeality, performativity and representation, it considers the sensori-perceptual deconstruction, reorganisation and reconstruction involved when the body is "touched" by, interacts with, and "in-corporates" the effects of technology. And, as these new approaches directly concern current research-creation and are expressed through collaborations, hybrid artistic approaches, new forms of interdisciplinarity and communities of practitioners, the article also considers the implications of this activity for networks of research-creation.
