The piece plunges into the throes of the information age. An immaterial omnipresence, net and server based, enchants the modern world, daily life became unthinkable without constant technological company. The piece invites the spectators to meander the currents of this new world.

In a space without clear orientation marks they’ll find a Youtuber, who teaches emotional studies to an audience of bots/algorithm/AI, an Otaku, blinded and obsessed by the beautiful dazzle of technological relics, and a runner who seeks the best version of herself in telemetric spirituality. These characters reside in transparent chambers, filled with haze and luminous projections, thus becoming inter-actors inside holographic displays.

The chambers are spread out in the wider audience space, de-centralized and separated from one another. The piece is an exploratory experience and is activating expansive spaces – transitional rooms and hallways, entrance areas, also warehouses, car parks or outdoor areas. The audience is roaming around and discovering their own vantage point. There is no singular focus point, rather a sense of omnipresence.

Elements of Gaming Culture, Dekotora and K-pop, of Photoshopping, Fashion and Trigonometry are hidden like Easter eggs, while notions of Narcissism and Neurosis, of Over-Stimulation and Ecstasies, Ritual and Submission are present all along the piece.
The performers pose and move in an abstract interpretation of contemporary lifestyle; isolated, energetic, highly specialized: nervous cells of an invisible, all-encompassing network.
With our physical and virtual realities increasingly intertwined, Nervous System 2020 is a reflection about this complex relationship and the transformative processes to the data-driven society.
