Alex and Bobby are talking script in hand, on the floor, in a set made of cardboard printed depicting 3D images of interior spaces. Alongside A and B, a third character named ‘Camera’ with a camera in hand, filming the conversation. A double monitor transmits the framed performance to the audience, alongside pre-recorded feedback.
The conversation is drawn from collected conversations led by Lim and Pesso with a chatbot (artificial conversational agent) and embodies an excessively light and generic talk on the themes of life, love, death, and so on. The performance has a soundtrack orchestrated by artificial intelligence that generates familiar musical symphonies.
