Description
The performance “Golden Record” is inspired by the true story of the Golden Record, which NASA sent into space in 1977 on the Voyager missions. The Golden Record contained photographs, drawings, and audio recordings from Earth, as part of a scientific team’s effort to communicate with a potential extraterrestrial civilization and convey an image of human life. Fifty years later, the performance revisits this historic event to pose the question anew: what does “human” mean today? The performance moves between documentary theater, fiction, and music theater, using historical narratives, personal stories, and live music. Starting from the archives of the Golden Record, the work explores how we can speak today about the history of humanity. The Golden Record returns – half a century after its launch into space – at a time when war and destruction overwhelm our daily lives.
