Ugo Dehaes' robots are special dancers: Some crawl across the table like caterpillars, others stumble around like puppies, some turn flexibly in all directions, some monotonously repeat the same movement over and over again.


»Simple Machines« tells the story of an artist who wants to abolish himself and leaves the stage to the unique physical possibilities of machines and the choreographic skills of artificial intelligence.

With this, Ugo Dehaes has created a highly playful robot ballet that sensually asks how people want to deal with the digital transformation.

  • Duration 50 minutes
  • in English spoken language with interpretation in German spoken language
