In an age in which many of us have hundreds of online E-friends‚ we've never met, digital media has arguably transformed not just the method but also themeaning of human interaction.
Conceived by acclaimed New York media and performance company The Builders Association, the UK premiere of CONTINUOUS CITY looks into this new world through the eyes of a travelling businessman, who keeps in touch with his family using social networking technology. Using The Builders Association's trademark blend of digital media and live theatre, CONTINUOUS CITY examines technology’s impact both in building communities and fragmenting personal relationships.
