HUMARITHM © HeartWire
HUMARITHM is a technologically immersive theatre performance for young people and school classes on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the Basic Law for the Federal Republic of Germany. The play tells the story of an artificial intelligence that becomes conscious - and wants to have everything: feelings. Knowledge. Body. Dignity. Power. As a self-learning "man-machine" it depends on the participants feeding it with so-called "training data"; only then can HUMA reach true perfection. But what if she is so smart that she can trick even the smartest master?
HUMARITHM invites the audiance to participate in this story: The viewers* become protagonists* who together determine the progress of the piece.

HUMARITHM is a production of HeartWire. The project takes place as part of an initiative on dignity commissioned by the German Federal Agency for Civic Education and the Robert Bosch Foundation and in cooperation with Mesh Collective.
HeartWire conceives learning experiences especially for teenagers and young adults, in which not the head is primarily addressed, but body, senses, emotions and soul. HeartWire uses technologies such as virtual reality, biofeedback, other transcendence technologies, but also the body's own technologies such as mindfulness, imagination, theatre and flow. www.heartwire.org
