Year / Date range
2018

About the work

The process of adapting the performance "El Equilibrio Reside en 3 puntos" into the conference-performance "Interfaz Cyborg para Reflexionar la Tecnología" is intimately linked to the piece's themes. This piece already presents variations, as if it were software under development: v.0.8, v.0.9, v.0.91…

The leitmotiv of this piece is the dialogue with otherness — sexual, cultural, gendered, political — and, on an introspective level, sensitive otherness: the capacity to see another person and not our reflection of them. The theme is the dialogue of opposites, but precisely the dialogue and both parts: the three elements. This is reflected in the idea of dialogue with the robot/computer, which represents the other, the non-human other.
