» About
»[ΣXHALE]« is an offshoot of the performance series Humane Methods, an ever-multiplying chain of stage productions by the Berlin-based performing arts group Fronte Vacuo (Marco Donnarumma, Margherita Pevere, Andrea Familari) that reflect on the forms of human violence that have risen from the coalescence of polarised societies, algorithmic megastructures, and natural ecosystems. Combining dance, theatre, interactive music, body art, and biotechnological installation, »[ΣXHALE]« is a living biome that takes shape as a collective, durational experiment in four episodes. The audience is immersed into a garden-like habitat of human performers, plant and fungal life, and AI algorithms generated by an omnipresent AI named <dmb>. As human, more-than-human, and AI lifeforms influence one another in this ritualistic choreography, a gradual shared intimacy emerges, bringing attention to the need for respectful coexistence and interdependence.
The performance takes place as part of CTM 2022 – Contact, which for this edition takes place as a two-part and hybrid edition in response to the possibilities of in-person events amongst ongoing pandemic uncertainties and the vastly different contexts and speeds of reopening in Europe and worldwide. CTM’s January/February programme will span select online offerings alongside programmes at Kunstraum Kreuzberg / Bethanien, silent green, and Radialsystem. Part two of the festival will take place late May 2022.
