An epic story spanning the stars,
True love blooms in the rifts of time and space.
Yan Pat To's "Post-Human Journey" trilogy reaches its conclusion with Sound Everywhere in the Universe, continuing the exploration of humanity's condition in the near future initiated in Sapiens: A Concise History of Future and Posthuman Condition. This latest work delves deeper into the ultimate questions of human existence, addressing suffering, sorrow, and the potential for transformation.
"Things that fall into a black hole only transform, they do not disappear,"
the cat with a hole says.
Planet OO was dragged into the black hole. Determined to reunite with his wife Aries who couldn't escape, T embarked on a cosmic journey. After 200 years of transformation, T finally arrives. Planet OO still exists but transformed into planet QQ. T feels completely out of place...
This performance marks the first complete presentation of Sound Everywhere in the Universe in Hong Kong. The production utilises art technology to construct a time-transcending effect, creating a rich, aesthetic and novel viewing experience, in addition to exploring the possibilities of integrating arts technology with live performance.
