RedEsCubrimiento Del Cuerpo​

a metaphorical construction of social memory on the web.

RedEsCubrimiento del cuerpo is a metaphorical construction of social memory on the web.

A work in which light takes the leading role and becomes our only means of revealing the existence of a moving body, traced in fragments by the paths of information trails that lie over it.

A look at what we are and at what a memory distorted by the back-and-forth of information turns us into.

Del Cuerpo

Following its presentation at CERN.

“I had the pleasure of attending the performance of this installation at CERN premises. On a personal perspective, I find amazing how with simple material elements but carefully guided with superb music, choreography and light Margareth and Carlos have captured profoundly how digital networks might contribute to alienate us and our interlocutors from our true material selves. In particular I find this performance as a sort of physical representation of the reflections of the philosopher Byung-Chul Han when in his book The Transparency Society, states:

Wherever information is very easy to obtain, as is the case today, the social system switches from trust to control. The society of transparency is not a society of trust, but a society of control.

I sincerely recommend anyone interested in reflecting about our relationship with the digital society to have the pleasure of contemplating this performance.”
