EPIZOO

Epizoo is a performance which enables the spectator to control Marcel.li’s body by means of a mechatronic system. This system is a body robot, an exoskeleton worn by the performer which includes a computer, a mechanical body control device, a vertical projection screen, two vertical lighting rigs and sound equipment. In the art world, Epizoo is an early example of the application of computer technology to the human body. This performance is one of the first to feature a remote control device enabling the spectator to control onstage elements including the artist's body. Epizoo has aroused great interest since its opening and to date, it has been performed in more than fifty cities in Europe, America and Asia.
