About BODySCAN 223
Premiering in 2021, BODySCAN 223 focuses on the often invisible technological structures that shape everyday life. Through dance, music and digital imagery, the audience is invited to look beyond the illusion of technological neutrality and reflect on the systems that influence the way we live.
What happens when algorithms control our life paths? When data and systems of value begin to shape our emotions, desires and relationships? BODySCAN 223 questions our often conflicting relationship with technology and examines how queer identities navigate a world of surveillance, expectations and categorisation.
The title refers to a movement from binary structures (2) towards a broader spectrum of possibilities (3). Not simply male or female, black or white, but a multitude of identities and lived experiences. This shift towards ambiguity and transformation lies at the heart of the performance.
From Thorn de Vries
SCHILLEN
Who are you when your story is rewritten?
In SCHILLEN, Thorn de Vries performs the theatre monologue that formed the basis of the book of the same name. During Pride at ITA, the audience is taken through a series of fragmented scenes in which Thorn looks back on their life and tries to relate to the girl they once thought they were. It is a personal and intense solo about identity, the stories we tell ourselves and the ongoing transformation of the self.
