SEANCE
Theatrical and technological performance using neural networks, lasers and dynamic lighting effects.
The neuro-spiritual session sends viewers back to the beginning of the Silver Age, when there were used the ideas of spiritualism and conversations with spirits. With the help of technology, the authors of the performance recreated this
atmosphere today.

The medium and the escort meet the guests at the entrance to the Gothic hall, where at the entrance the participants put their notes to the medium on a dish. The attendant seats the guests in front of the table, the lights go out, only the light of candles remains.
After some time of silence, the medium takes any note from the dish and reads the question aloud. After that, he burns the note with a candle flame and sits down in his place.
While the neural network is formulating an answer, sound and light are accelerated, rotating around the table, creating a light-sound centrifuge.
The sound vibration reaches such a level that it makes all objects standing rattle. Overshadowing the entire external space, this action disorientates the participants as much as possible.

Having reached the absolute, light and sound abruptly cease to exist.
In the ringing silence, a laser beam appears a few
once refracted in mirrors, which trembles along with the voice of the neural network, giving its cold detached answer.
