MEDIATHEK

SIGNAL / NOISE

On the stage exposed real bodies took the role of noise distortion fighting against even more sophisticated technological stage devices. With AIDS as the center, issues such a gender, homosexuality, nationality, identity, and life and death were brought out. However they not only criticized the issue of discrimination in contemporary society, but they also considered how to use this criticism as an opportunity to form an entirely new love = Communication.

This communication is rather the different intersections of the multiplicity of the media created by humans (from body language to the computer network) and it must not be transmission devices for power.
