Team Rolfes & The Mustang Speedrun, Eek, Kirby Casilli, Tina Stefanou
A night of expanded cinema and real-time virtual performance. See two world premiere works commissioned by Eora’s trailblazing new media curators SOFT CENTRE.
Hearsay, by Narrm-based artists Eek, Kirby Casilli, and Tina Stefanou, is an extended filmic performance that transforms the cinema into a zoological amphitheatre. Blending moving image, contemporary performance, hypnotism, and sound, Hearsay meditates on the erosion of trust — and the ways in which perception, through body, memory, state, means, and the other, undergo reconstruction and distortion.
Team Rolfes & The Mustang Speedrun is the latest chapter from NYC’s masters of real-time virtual theatre. Following the success of club theatre variety show Diskokina and an international tour of their critically acclaimed 321Rule, Team Rolfes returns with a chaotic audiovisual sprint: a misfit crew of avatar jockeys struggles to keep their failing exoskeleton operational as they speed toward a surreal championship. Brought to life via live motion capture, cinematic game engine animation, and avant-garde club musicians, The Mustang Speedrun will make you rethink the traditional cinema experience.
