A performance about the fragility of human relationships in an age of hyperconnectivity and automation.
"Famulus" is the Latin term for "servant" - but who are the servants and who are the masters in the Industrial Revolution 4.0, which is characterized by the autonomy of digital systems, machine learning and assistance? The dance performance deals with the current discourse on AI, technical dependency and emotional attachment in the digital age. Here, the real and the digital, the human and the technological meet: playful, challenging, humorous. Four dancers and a robot dog. A production that provides no answers - rather, it questions the influence of technology on a future that is already here.
The Catalan group Iron Skulls has been combining the sensuality of contemporary dance with theater and the strength of urban dance since 2013, pushing the boundaries of movement. Their passion for incorporating non-dance elements into their productions is their trademark. This creates artistic universes that explore the past, present and future, and with which they perform at major dance festivals around the globe. The company has been awarded international prizes such as the HipHop Award at the Burgos at the New York International Dance Contest and the SóLODOS en Danza Award in Costa Rica.
