Lost On Mars

FESCH.TV INFORMIERT:

A live AV performance together with homonym and jit.horse at the Women’s Day event Echo-Systems: Audiovisual Stories for Happy Feminist Survivors on March 8th 2019 at SPEKTRUM Berlin.

In early 2019, NASA assumed Opportunity to be lost on Mars, ending all communication attempts with the geologist-robot on wheels. In their live-performance, Grit Kit, homonym and jit.horse follow their suspicions that Opportunity has been up to something else since that heavy sand storm in the summer of 2018. Why was she suddenly covering her tracks? Was she talking to microbes? Joining a feminist A.I.-compound? Secretly sending messages to her twin Spirit? Recreating her steps before the sky turned red and imagining a different narrative for Oppy and her accomplices, “Lost on Mars” is a space travel with an en-lightning twist.
