THE TIME LOST (E.P.)
LIVE MUSIC THEATER (pocket)
CREATION 2014. SHOW 2
There will be a prolonged experience of time, the world record of the Rubik's cube, Albert Einstein, a monkey on his planet, a robot revolution, the progession of blue cubes on a desk, of the different forms of flash and superhero Flash, among others.
THE SHOW
It is divided into three parts and a whole:
1- Mathematical time (clock, second, minute, hour)
2- Personal time felt (it seems short, it seems long)
3- Time capitalized, valued, coined (lose time, win, what does it mean and for whom?)
The whole, the binder, invites the viewer to plunge experimentally into his own appreciation of the duration, the expectation or the flight of time ("Time flies when you're having fun").
POP CULTURE
The show is based on a decidedly pop iconography: the Flash superhero, the sprinter Usain Bolt, the movie (s) "Terminator", the novel (and the films) "The planet of the apes", the Rubik's cube ... It plays both on these playful and popular references but also on the nodes of possible that they generate. With "The planet of the apes", we open up to literature, cinema and mathematics (Einstein's theory of restricted relativity). "Terminator" takes us to the dream of travel in time, but also to the place of robotics and computing in the modern world. Flash and Bolt, with their speed records, allow us to sketch a reflection on modernity and the acceleration of time.
SCIENCES AND SELF
Behind a playful theatrical mask and a pop culture, the show approaches very seriously notions of mathematics, philosophy and sociology. Of course, it is not an end in itself. His ambition is to open some doors, to sow some questions that will make their way thereafter.
During the thirty minutes of this pocket-sized show, we propose to stop for a moment and take time, simply, in a playful way, to think of time.
Each performance will be followed by a debate with the audience.
