fortuna! < who’s melting here >
Let’s play two truths and a lie:
One, we love to just try things, but
Two, I feel stuck all the time.
Three, I would like to get out of
the functional gear I am wearing.
Where are we? Can I stop at any point?
Three digital avatars find themselves idling in a space out of bounds. They reconfigure the flow of information between them and their constraints – seeking connections and discovering kinesthetic possibilities along the way.
This choreographic exploration drifts through an ambiguous technoscape and proposes gestures, which develop their humor from the mundane. An inquiry of movement and possibility between alienation and the familiar.

This production is part of the Artistic Collaboration Projects (ACO), that brings together students from seven Uniarts and Aalto University degree programs. Over a period of five weeks, the students have explored and practiced artistic collaboration in performances based on movement and choreography. The process culminates in performances of all five works during the last week of May.
