I have personally had a few boundary dissolution in my life. One that comes to mind at first is the boundry between my work, school, and personal life. I tend to have a different yet similar attitude and relationship with those around me depending on where I am and what I'm doing. From what I gathered from the links a boundary dissolution is when one takes something and changes it for good or bad.
In Steve Dixon's book "Digital Performance" he talks about how technology has slowly also taken over the art fields such as theatre, dance, and performing arts. I personally agree with this seeing as how I personally am a theatre technician and use technology to enhance the experience for not only the audience but also the performer. With some of the "new" technology in the sound world we are able to map speakers across rooms and make sounds literally "move"through a space. This can bring the audience literally into the middle of the sound scape and into the world of the play, the musical, the dance, or the concert. Another dissolution that I have used more than once in a show is the appearance of "flying" or "floating" through the air. This dissolution works great on kids who easily believe. Adults have a harder time believing someone is actually flying on their own but if one uses the correct technology, gear and has the right training anything is possible.
Everyday we are exposed to more and more of these Boundary Dissolution's and everyday we adapt and survive.
