Moritz Ostruschnjak

Text Neck

> schwere reiter

In his dance performance, Munich’s choreographer Moritz Ostruschnjak examines identities and bodies in a digital age. Digital technologies are rapidly changing our lives and society. The internet’s expanse offers all freedoms. We create new realities in playful ways and stage diverse virtual identities; social interaction is increasingly taking place online. Bent over our smartphones – as so-called “text necks” – we walk through the cities and expand ourselves into the omnipresent and multidimensional spheres. The colorful screen surface is our window to the world!

Ostruschnjak’s “Text Neck” shows hybrid forms between man and machine on the shiny playing field of infinite digital possibilities – around one another, with one another but still self-sufficient. In an interplay between the body, sound (live electronics: 48nord) and colors (lighting: Tanja Rühl), the audience is drawn in and a weightless space is created..
