About / The meeting stages a scene featuring three characters. Devised as prototypes to prolong existence, one digitally embeds the facial presence of a person within another’s body, the next is a prosthetic meta vital organ, and another is an animalistic Euro pallet protein container. Each of these prototypes practices self-awareness and attempts to communicate with each other through abstract sounds.
