DISCOPIA

The performers find themselves in a desolate landscape littered with digital waste. They learn to communicate through the creation, repetition, and distortion of sound and movement. Found sounds are recorded and translated, the sound of a car is transformed into an echo of waves - this is their only connection to a world which once was. Can they use the technology which ultimately destroyed them to rebuild a better world?

Responding to  post-work theory the rise of AI in the workplace, and our acceleration towards ecological breakdown, we will examine what labour might look like in a post- work world, how value might be defined when money becomes valueless and where people will invest their most treasured currency - time.

A new collaboration between Excessive Human Collective, Larisa Trio and Devon Bonelli
