Take Me I’m Yours Opera: Beyond the Supermarkets

Part of Plymouth International Book Festival

We like to think that we, the humans, are in control of the inanimate objects around us—cereal boxes, sugar cubes, printer paper. What happens, though, when objects start talking back, telling us what to do?

This unique interactive performance draws on research by Chris Speed and Duncan Shingleton into object-agency, using an IPhone App that lets objects instruct their users rather than the other way around.

This performance is taking place as part of The Expanded Narrative Symposium
