The ever-morphing project is created by Pussykrew, an duo of award-winning directors and immersive media artists that explore spaces in between digital and physical realms, blending fluid identities and futuristic landscapes through experimentation with 3D, real-time performance, photogrammetry, and VR sculpting.

In »/ orcl /,« AI-powered avatars arise from deep crevices of the city through mystical portals to queer their urban surroundings, inviting you to listen to their messages from the in-between to reclaim your energy. Virtual deities, mutants, and shapeshifting beings traverse familiar spaces and encourage us to reimagine our roles in this ecosystem. Their messages are accompanied by sound scores specially crafted by local musicians Born in Flamez, Perera Elsewhere, and Ziúr. Look for the six unique »/ orcl /« avatars on posters displayed at CTM venues Berghain, RSO, Heimathafen Neukölln, Volksbühne am Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz, and Kunstquartier Bethanien, as well as throughout the city.

By bridging virtual and material realms, »/ orcl /« provides a spark for imagining and constructing alternative futures, celebrating human / non-human forces, in an interactive ritual.
