KARL COONEY:
Can video documentation amplify the reach of a performance or only commodify it?
Which performances should be documented and who decides?
Will processing and organizing of raw footage with a machine learning algorithm yield any insight or beauty? Is there any way to avoid appropriation of the images of others or is a sterile art object devoid of context or spirit inevitable?

BIPAF is, in and of itself, performance art. www.bipaf.net
