Code Omen: The Seed of Transformation

Zita Fusco and 777Rouge: a traveling performance blending art, technology, the body, and transformation. The Lab takes on a new form for one evening

A code can be written.
A code can be read.
A code can be cracked.

An omen? CODE OMEN – The Seed of Transformation is the second artist-in-residence program hosted by Asperastra Innovation LAB at Lab Futuro Presente.

A project that spans art, technology, the body, and transformation, immersing the audience in an experience where the boundary between what we observe and what we are a part of slowly begins to dissolve.

We don't want to give too much away. Because CODE OMEN isn't just something you watch. It's something you experience.

On October 17, the Lab Futuro Presente will take on a new form. Matter, images, sound, light, and both human and artificial presences will become elements of a single narrative environment.

CODE OMEN emerges precisely in that space: between who we are and who we could become. Between the natural and the artificial. Between the body and technology. Between chance and intention. Between what we plan and what emerges.

A performance that comes to life within the Innovation Lab and uses the space not merely as a backdrop, but as an integral part of the work itself.

We'd rather not go into the rest of it. Because some things only make sense when they happen. And for October 17 to happen, we'll need you, too.
