Stephanie Felber & Team: Corpus Duplicis

In the organizer's words:

"What does the double tell us that is so similar and yet so different?"

In Corpus Duplicis, performer Ludger Lamers encounters his digital double - live, projected, repeatedly mirrored and distorted. Dance and real-time video merge into a game between reality and image, control and loss of control. The piece takes up the age-old motif of the doppelganger, which extends to today's avatars and algorithmic egos. It asks: Who are we when we are confronted with a second self as a figure and the boundary between appearance and digital double begins to waver - an experiment in which the self is reflected, multiplied and looks back as an alien figure.
