www.we want waffles #1

performer


In a time of boredom, where is fun? In a time of alienation, when to act?

www. we want waffles is a research project and a performance trilogy working within the perception mechanisms and the issues affecting us in the digital era. To do this, we seek intersections between daily life and artistic creation, using digital tools to rethink ideas of body, choreographic composition and virtual communication.

www. we want waffles #1 plays with different formats, inhabiting a hybrid field between installation and performance. It explores the production of images and sounds from digital platforms, creating a contemplative journey about how we deal with the information age and a new era of productivity. This object offers an encounter with the visitor-spectator, finding pleasure in the limits of boredom while surfing into growing alienation.
