Abstract
In this thesis I explore the idea that Samuel Beckett's 'Ping' is a text that 'performs' - acting on the reader to create an active response - through the act of translating the text into a different medium - one that fundamentally also 'performs'; sounds, shows, moves, that of moving-image.
