In cyberspace, everything is dead. None of the things created using a computer are alive. Some of them are three-dimensional, like us. Others breathe, like us. They look very real. Not like the people or objects that fill our tangible universe. Not like ideas, concepts, feelings or fantasies. Not even like far-off planets and stars, barely visible out there somewhere. They're present here and they're real, though they exist in a reality that we can only visit, but never really inhabit.
It’s precisely this kind of sentiment that drew us to the theatre of Tadeusz Kantor. On the Cricot 2 stage, all objects were equal. Blackboard, equipment, actor, mannequin. All were elements of the image that was created by the director, constantly present on the stage: Tadeusz Kantor. His art resembled research, the exploration of memories, images, collective and individual symbols. An experiment consisting in collecting things in a single place, to see what would happen. What happens in the middle of this experience.
The programme 'Cricoterie' was created under the influence of inspiration by Kantor. But it’s not a reconstruction, a documentary or a tribute. We shamelessly ripped off his art, to create our own.
