2 years ago: A.I. explodes in popularity and ability.
20 years ago: A computer wins a game of chess.
400 years ago: A clockwork child is thrown in the ocean.
Nothing is as it seems, nothing quite as remembered.
'function.' is:
- A show about robots and humans, performed by a robot (controlled by a human).
- A piece of docu-theatre taking place between the 16th century BC and now, from the bottom of the ocean to the planet Mars.
- An exploration of the history of artificial intelligence, the limits of human imagination, and why we build things in our own image.
(Also its a work-in-progress, all of this could change by the time you see it. Beep boop.)
