In a near future, in which body-modification has advanced, a new medium of memory has been developed: Hack-No-Tech, from the french term hackers-non-technologiques; it looks like a dance but is a tool used to save information in the body.
How would the world change, when bodies suddenly become active memory-carriers?
Two sisters, Svenja Simone Schulte as filmmaker and Miriam Coretta Schulte as Hack-No-Tech-er, pursue this question further in their film «Muscle Memory».
In order to acquaint yourself with this advancing future, you will meet multiple players: a neuroscientist, an everyday Hack-No-Tech-er and a theatre scholar, as well as experience a small Hack-No-Tech gathering in Paris.Through conversations and situational experiments with the choreographies, various positions on the question of how to harness the potential of the human body will be revealed.
