The Real Life Show is a performance that incorporates computer game and virtual environments projections. The work is based on practical research on the movement, non-verbal communication, and body language of avatars and various representations of humans in virtual environments. While technology is in a race to simulate humans in the most compelling way, a group of performers take the opposite route, emulating technology in real life. The act of simulation exposes the shortcomings and nuances in how we experience reality and distinguish it from false reality.
