KEIKEN
Morphogenic Angels
With ‘Morphogenic Angels’, the transnational artist collective KEIKEN presents a constantly evolving worldbuilding project that creates speculative worlds of future living spaces and forms through film, games, extended reality (XR), blockchain and performance. At HELLERAU, the audience can experience the project over several days in the hybrid interaction space of an immersive game installation; additional playthrough performances are planned as a preview of the game on 18. & 19. October.
