About the Program

In Dinka Pignon's Dinner For Corporeal and Radiant Beings, reality is mirrored through video feeds that have real guests dining with virtual ones in this intimate and eerie experience. Video guests address real guests in arbitrary conversations as if they were able to see them. Guests can respond to the videos with pre-scripted dialogues and also have a conversation with their own phantom. This performance was presented by VIVO Media Arts.
