London-based collaboration Plastique Fantastique is produced by Ana Benlloch, David Burrows, Arianne Churchman, Tom Clark, Benedict Drew, Marie Marshall, Alex Marzeta, Vanessa Page, Frankie Roberts and Simon O’Sullivan. For London Open Live, they will present a new performance-fiction about humans and their technologies, and other animals. The group will use songs, improvisation, enaction of scenarios and storytelling, as well as masks, objects and projections, to present a communiqué addressing meme cultures and their political and social effects. The group draw upon Hollywood cinema, science fiction and folk traditions – fictions of the near and far future and from the past – to speculate on human-technological-animal relations and community.
Plastique Fantastique is a collaboration and performance fiction who have explored collective fictioning since 2005. The collaboration is currently produced by Ana Benlloch, David Burrows, Arianne Churchman, Tom Clark, Benedict Drew, Marie Marshall, Alex Marzeta, Vanessa Page, Frankie Roberts and Simon O’Sullivan. Together, the group develop fictions attending to digital and meme cultures, human and nonhuman relations, the colonisation of space and environmental change. They also address technological development and acceleration relating to their own lives and politics more broadly.
