Streaming performance for the Hasard Live Stream Festival Fribourg, with the GingerEnsemble
In countless discussions in virtual space, in ‘streamed’ culture and disembodied society, we suddenly become aware of the limitations of digital tools. Personal, social discourse cannot simply be replicated digitally without transformation.
In search of the unmediated aesthetics of digital tools, the GingerEnsemble is developing a series of short performative pieces that playfully explore the use of contemporary digital communication media such as smartphones, computers, laptops and associated software.
These ‘virtual coughs’ arise from the interplay between physical presence and digital gathering, between artificial intelligence and natural stupidity, and between planned acumen and unsolicited network disruptions.
