Repetition Compulsion x Toaster Performance Biennale

I had the opportunity to join the Repetition Compulsion performance by Jules Fischer, where I worked on lighting design together with Sofia Stal, as well as was handling the programming.

For this project, we worked with a cinematographic lighting, which gave the space a distinct and captivating outcome. It was also an interesting opportunity to work with a fully cinematic equipment within the context of a live performance.

As a Show Technician, I was responsible for coding and programming fully synchronized show, bringing together Light and Sound.

Repetition Compulsion, unfolds as a duet. The title refers to a term coined by Sigmund Freud, describing the unconscious drive to reenact traumatic relationships and relational dynamics repeatedly.
