Post Me_New ID : presentation at the Kinetica Art Fair London

“DARE WE DO IT REAL-TIME?” is a performance presentation for the Kinetica Art Fair
In a topical world of blurred personal and public space and simultaneous local/global habitats lies the intricate place of virtual/physical orientation.
The performers mimic chosen identities – morphing between avatar, cyborg, humanoid, robot, using the electronic, the bionic, the digitronic.
Hyper-existence is all around them. In the interconnected, multi- nodal space of real and virtual, they need to be sharply connected and speedily responsive to “the others” – tele-intuition is learnt on the move.
In “DARE WE DO IT REAL-TIME?” virtual / physical boundaries are speedily dissolved so we can see, with humour and irony, the potential errors, glitches, thrills and magic moments that transpire.
