Overview

Remote X addresses the imminent reality of artificial intelligence in the cities of the future. The performance, a kind of mobile research experimental lab, has been presented in many places across the world, from the Americas to eastern and western Europe, Russia and India. For each new edition, a unique dramatic structure is developed, based on the urban fabric of the hosting site.

In Remote Sharjah, a computer-generated voice will guide the participants as they walk through a sequence of carefully selected indoor and outdoor locations in the city centre. While strolling through the city, each person will see familiar and unfamiliar sites come to life, as if immersed in a set for an imaginary film.
