Cy Mirol is a research assistant in Authorship Studies. Her research, originating in Authorship as Performance, has evolved from theoretical foundations to practical applications across the arts, literature, and music. Within this context, she developed Bookperformance, a term she coined in 2011 as part of her MA. It is deliberately written as one word and articulated through the initial declaration of its academic manifest which foregrounds the distinctive worldview of “holding space for life’s unfolding authorship” ©, which functions as a practice theory grounded in the ethics of authorship in all senses of the word. It is driven by the morality of “we are all one”, guiding us toward empathy and responsibility in co-authorship of life, where the only justifying force is love. Its manifest is declared in its final form as part of her PhD. www.bookperformance.com
