Soundwalk Collective's Lovotic is inspired by the golden record found on the Voyager space probe in 1977 and takes us on an archaeological journey into the future, a sonic snapshot of a long-extinct species, with only these sonic artifacts left to attest to its existence.

Originally written and conceived by Stephan Crasneanscki with the collaboration of Charlotte Gainsbourg, Atom™️, Lyra Pramuk, Willem Dafoe, and Paul B. Preciado, Lovotic is a poetic, futuristic fable that delves into the complex dynamics of human sexuality, its digital reconstruction, and its impact on the collapse of civilizations. Alexandre Roccoli incorporates the musical score into his Long Play work, re-materializing the experience of bodies and their mutation and disappearance in space-time. This dance performance, Long Play (LP)/Lovotic , draws the audience into a meditation on the infinite possibilities of life and transformation, offering us a unique interpretation of human transhumance.
