Episode description

Australian dancer and choreographer Atlanta Eke brought us 'Wetware', a performance concerned with time travel. The work, a response to the RMIT Design Hub’s Occupied exhibition and further developed for MPavilion, imagined that architects from 2050 had travelled back in time via the digital universe to share a dystopian tale from a near future; a drowned world where land-based life has returned to the sea. The performance of 'Wetware' was followed by a related panel discussion entitled ‘The architecture of display: Scenography as an agent for performance and design’, and included such noteworthy participants as Atlanta Eke herself, Fleur Watson of RMIT Design Hub, David Neustein, and Grace Mortlock of Otherothers. Listen back to to Atlanta Eke’s performance and keep it locked for the talk!
