Abstract
Digital displacement refers to a multifaceted sense of displacement experienced by arts practitioners and participants when engaging in an online pedagogy, and the negotiation of challenges and barriers to relocating their creative practice in a virtual environment during the pandemic. This chapter provides a rationale behind how the concept has developed theoretically and an exploration of how this has and will inform arts practice in digital spaces. We situate digital displacement within the conceptual framework of liveness and use examples of practice to illustrate the critical nature of engagement and displacement, embodiment and disembodiment, and connectedness and disconnectedness in experiential, participatory online work.
