POL - Mechatronic Performance

Marcel.lí Antúnez Roca (ES)

Posthof
11.09. 21:00

An ironic and poetic fable as the outcome of the interaction among performers, audience members and machines. Sound, visual staging elements and robots that are part of the dramatic plot are controlled live via the performers’ exoskeletons. The audience can utilize two oversized joysticks—so-called totems—to interject new sound patterns and activate images on the screens. The tremendous appeal of this performance stems from the contrast between the simple fable—a bunny in search of love—and is elaborately, interactively staged production.
The stage set goes high-tech—an ingenious and imaginative blend of media fiction and theater.
