SUBHUMAN THEATRE

Man ex Machina is an "intimate event", a mixture between installation, performance and lecture. It explores the interrelations between human beings and technology, which have lead to the creation of hybrids. These fantastic, supernatural beings mark the boundaries between the human and the technological, between being born and being made, between fact and fiction. A protagonist in the performance is such a creature – an eclectic object, created by new technologies and old mechanisms, the body of the artist and sophisticated electronics.
