Early Warning System

Early Warning System invites you into a strange landscape consisting of satellites, sensors, elephants and sages. It’s where technology meets ancient mythology. Set in the context of climate change, the performance reconstructs the human body as a sensor forecasting extreme geological and weather events. This is juxtaposed with the ancient Indian mythological approach, where an earthquake is believed to be the dance of an elephant. The show is a journey, where we dive into emerging technology, and contrasting philosophies, challenging what we know and how we think. It is the discomfort before an epiphany. thinking with Sipan Sezgin Tekin, Laura Boser scenography Selena Losa sound Agat Sharma and George Demitriou technical advise Willem Wimhoff with support from AFK, ATD Lectorate, ID Lab
