Originated 3 years ago, audio visual spectacle BUTOH-TECHNO is back! We are inviting you to join us on this imaginary tale of man where butoh dancer and live improvising musicians are characters performing on the metaphorical stage of life. The story is told by physical poet and sound and visual artists. The dancer uses his body to tell the story of man’s falls and uprises struggling against the odds of life. Musicians take the roles of his friends and adversaries by building tension and releasing it to create obstacles and to help him overcome them. They create multilayer abstract spaces filled with improvised and techno music and live visuals.
