Flatland – Part I
Flatland – Part I (Going up, not North) is the first of three episodes that tell the tragic story of a Flatman since he has discovered a third dimension is missing in his life.
On this first part we can follow Flatman and his reflection through worlds of bi dimensionality and perspective until he finds out that his existence in the 3D world is possible if there are spectators looking at him. Happy with the discovery but unhappy with the dependency, Flatman organizes a strategy to conquer his tri dimensional immortality.”
Flatman – Part I is a multimedia performance where letters, images and small notes are projected on a 3mx4m book that you can read, ear and watch transforming and moving as the story goes.
