Metagotchi, Otredades and Misunderstandings
show
/ 2027
Duration : 70 minutes
ALIENUS
or... Why Are Aliens Green?
Theatre Show — All ages • 50 minutes
Welcome to 2050! In ALIENUS, humans are no longer the only ones on stage. Picture this: a robotic arm, 250 pink mechanical dogs, and two actors learning a brand-new language of coexistence. Inspired by the legendary play R.U.R. (which gave us the word “robot” back in 1920), this show isn’t about rebellion — it’s about meeting beings that are radically different. With a mix of science, poetic weirdness, and offbeat humor, ALIENUS dives into our tech dreams and fears. What if the real aliens aren’t light-years away... but already here? Quiet. Articulated. Electronic.
MISUNDERSTANDINGS
Artistic Talk — All ages • 45 minutes
Can AI help us connect with the truly unknown? In this playful and curious talk, we explore what it means to meet “the other” through machines. Expect: talking rocks, unexpected friendships, a peek into the history of predictive tech, medieval mashups, the Ars Combinatoria, and maybe even a crash course in alien speak.
METAGOTCHI
Interactive Installation — All ages - 7 minutes
Metagotchi is a fictional interactive character (conversational agent / chatbot) who invites the audience to engage with radical otherness. Through a one-on-one, intimate conversation on your phone, you'll be invited to explore unexpected questions and possibilities — a strangely familiar, delightfully strange encounter. (Currently in development)
