A SciFi performance by Karla Kracht
The Ghost in the Machine project is a complex, ongoing exploration, fragmented into several evolving chapters and formats. At its core, the performance imagines ceremonies of a future where humans no longer exist, leaving robots to carry forward distorted interpretations of our traditions —a persistent echo of what once was. This work manifests as a faux documentary, a video-object performance that intertwines drawings, sculptures, live video, light design, soundscapes, and special effects. Each object or artifact, carefully crafted, unveils peculiar rituals in a post-human world, offering an ironic yet oddly familiar reflection of how these remnants of our culture might be misinterpreted and reenacted by our mechanical successors.

Ghost in the Machine @Teatre Principal Santanyí
March 14, 2025 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Ghost in the Machine és una performance de Live Cinema que fusiona rituals ancestrals i tecnologia futurista. A través dels ulls de màquines, explora el llegat espiritual de la humanitat, mitjançant titelles, dispositius electrònics i efectes visuals immersius, creant una experiència surrealista i evocadora.
Actualment, aquest treball està en procés de creació, desenvolupada durant les residències al Taipei Puppetry Art Center i Can Timoner.
Ho organitza: Sa Talaia.
Hi col·labora: Regidoria de Cultura de l'Ajuntament de Santanyí, Teatre Principal de Santanyí.
