Agrupación Señor Serrano

Una isla

  • Performance
approx. 70 mins.

“We need to find a new way of living together, in which the ‘I’ gives way to the ‘we’, in which individual well-being is inconceivable without shared well-being.” In “Una Isla”, Agrupación Señor Serrano from Barcelona take their statement as the basis for the search for this “we”. Who belongs to this “we” and who does not? Dancers try to find out in dialogue with artificial intelligence. Since the beginning of studies on AI in the 1950s, machine learning systems have been portrayed as a threat. How could this work differently? What if we invite artificial intelligence to imagine “us”, to imagine a place for “us”? What if we invite them to collaborate on the performance?

Latest information for arrival

There is currently a construction site on Hallesches Ufer between Wilhelmstraße and Möckernbrücke underground station. There is a divided replacement route for pedestrians (right) and cyclists (left), which are separated by a yellow ground line. The carriageway is narrowed to one lane.

Travelling to HAU2 via U Hallesches Tor:

If you are coming from Hallesches Tor underground station, you will have to use an alternative footpath from Wilhelmstraße / Hallesches Ufer junction, which is separated from the carriageway by a construction fence – the actual footpath is currently closed. Please note: the alternative route is also used by cyclists. Pedestrians should keep to the right. We therefore currently recommend that visually impaired or blind visitors come to the HAU with an accompanying person.

Arrival HAU2 via U Möckernbrücke:

When you leave Möckernbrücke underground station, please stay on the footpath on the canal side until you reach Hallesches Ufer / Großbeerenstraße junction – the opposite side is currently closed due to construction work.
