About the Event
Renowned techno producer Chlär and Ballet Sur_real have collaborated on a new ballet set to electronic music. As Chlär performs a live set, both the dancers and the 360° spatial sound installation by d&b audiotechnik's 360° become extensions of his composition.
An evening in two acts, Elizabetha Poliakova will perform a solo creation in collaboration with Felix Kiessing. For the second act, Ballet Sur_real's work, in collaboration with Chlär explores how consciousness today is transformed through data and algorithms, highlighting both the dystopian and utopian realities artificial intelligence has brought forth.
Artists
Known for his driving, percussive sets, Chlär represents the forefront of Europe’s new generation of techno artists. Chlär is a Swiss-born electronic music producer and DJ, currently based in Berlin, who often performs as a duo with Alarico under the name Funkassualt. His oeuvre reflects a strong interest in techno’s deeper, more hypnotic dimensions.
Ballet Sur_real is the official ballet ensemble of DANCÆ, founded in 2023 by choreographers Soraya Schulthess and Renato De Leon. The ensemble’s work fuses classical ballet with electronic music, integrating immersive installations and innovative technologies into its choreographic language. Their creations draw on contemporary life while delving into the deeper psychological motives that drive human behavior.
Installation
d&b audiotechnik is one of the world’s leading sound system manufacturers, known for its precision, clarity, and immersive spatial technology. Its d&b Soundscape system allows sound to move freely through a space, creating the sensation of being inside the music rather than simply listening to it.
An accompanying exhibition extends the project beyond the stage, transforming its themes into an immersive, standalone gallery experience.
