Dear Algorithm,

More than half of the world population currently lives in cities; the indoor environment has become a more-than-natural space. It is heated to remain warm, or air-conditioned in order to stay cool. Thus, one does not ever feel the need to leave the multifunctional space meant for both living and working, where even  food can be delivered to one’s doorstep. The film Dear Algorithm is set within such an environment,  an “office hotel” in the suburbs of Tallinn. The dancers – acting as alienated organisms–– inhabit the space wearing rain protection clothes and signal lights. The meditative travel in the space the performers undertake is accompanied by environmental sounds (excerpts from Everything Emanating from the Sun by Yiorgis Sakellariou) and a female voice.
