“Silent Disco” is an immersive performance taking place in discos, and exploring the technological potential of the so-called silent disco parties.
The audience forms a temporary community that is guided across the empty disco space using headphones. This performance aims at speculating on the nature of clubbing as na act of resistance, capable of reshaping ways of reflection, affection and corporeity. Can spectacular identities, multiple sexualities,hedonist consumption and raw physicality be political resistance practices?
