A cascade of information with constant pressure from official statements,
frightening public reports, pop culture phenomena and social media distorts
our perception of reality. A chaos of lies and manipulation absorbs all
conscious voices and slowly transforms them into a wall of white noise.
Transitions/Distortions is an audiovisual improvisation, where different
performers explore the intense information environment that surrounds us
day and night.
The performance invites the audience to experience a new and different
environment of information flow using sound improvisation and image techniques
- with a special focus on the distortion of the physical, visual and mental
processes.
