Think of a body in stand-by, a short-circuited thought, a human brain processing at a frequency of 5 GHz...
In PARK, six computers form a communication network that provides six performers with real-time instructions. PARK confronts the human body with a digital logic. It plays with the border of the human's presence and absence in technology and embodies a puzzle in which they outline each other. With playful precision we investigate strategies of embracing, resisting, adapting, disrupting or short-circuiting these technical surroundings. Who infiltrates what, and what infiltrates whom? PARK inhabits a peculiar network, which sputters in a much outmoded way.
For PARK, Stefan Prins asked Shila Anaraki to create a performance based on his composition 'Infiltrationen', for 4 electric guitars and a live-electronics performer. Central to this composition is the notion of technology infiltrating the conditio humana on several levels.
