As hyperrealistic avatars and endless streams of images flood our screens, the line between our physical bodies and virtual selves has begun to blur. In Age of Content, the French multidisciplinary collective (LA)HORDE and Ballet national de Marseille explore how identity is fractured in the digital age, asking what remains singular about the living, breathing body.
Harnessing the kinetic immediacy of live performance, Age of Content hurtles audiences through the digital landscapes that saturate our screens—from viral TikTok dances to Grand Theft Auto—in a stunning, high-velocity dance work for our chronically online age.
