Artificial intelligence, magic and a tragic genius.

Oracle is a multimedia play about Alan Turing - the man who cracked the Enigma code, shortened the Second World War and was also a visionary of computer technology. Between post-war England and the digital in-between world, the past meets the future: AI, control and the secret of the machine. Director Łukasz Twarkowski(Respublika at the Ruhrtriennale 2022) and author Anka Herbut tell Turing's life as an atmospheric vision - with immersive sound, projections and cinematic means. What is real? What is algorithmically created? And how dark is the soul of technology?

The Ruhrtriennale is the festival of the arts in the Ruhr region - a festival for everyone who longs for tomorrow. Touching experiences of music theater, drama, dance and more are created between machine halls and blast furnaces.
