Description

MINU_festival for expanded music | www.minufestival.com Bonegarden | 1.12 21.00 | Ku.Be multiscreen monodrama Revenge, love, virtual reality, and social media. In their work Bonegarden, Timo Tuhkanen uses speculative fiction and the expanded monodrama form to explore ‘trauma-porn’, or the commercialization and abuse of traumatic experiences. Told through the perspective of Tameri, played by Lore Lixenberg, who in her rage discovers an online service that offers memory-infused VR experiences where the avatar of Helen Weber, a trauma victim, is used to play out the revenge fantasy of the client. This constructed multiplayer online server allows users to embody, live through, and act out experiences where they are able to commit their acts on others. In the monodrama we see Lore’s character fall into this cycle and struggle with her feeling of being torn between the abusive nature of the technology and her need for self realisation.
