PAIN OPERA
"The aim of this project is to explore pain as a means of communication. Throughout the entire performance, the person on stage will be hurt. Music will be born from his pain with the help of a neural interface. The vocalists will sing the thoughts and feelings of the people involved in the process. : the one who hurts, the one who is hurt, the one who observes it all.. We all live in an empirical bubble that separates us from the ideal world, the world of true reality. It is possible that pain is the signal that the outside world sends us. But is it possible to decipher it? We will try to get an answer to these questions. But will we succeed?" Vsevolod Lisovsky
