VENEDIG UNTER – A Cyborg Tour
A multimedia performance
By Elena Messner & Gabriele Schelle
World premiere

04.11.2026 21:00 "Science meets Art" Keynote lecture by Prof. Dr. Arne Biastoch from the GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel followed by a discussion with the audience after the premiere at KulturForum Kiel

The future. Venice is memory.

A research station in the sunken lagoon city opens its gates to visitors for the first time. Before the opening of the AI-operated station, the Artificial Intelligence Cyb takes influencer and climate activist Meg and journalist Bruno on an exclusive tour into the depths.

"We travel to a bygone era – to the time of the great coastal cities."

What begins as a spectacular dive into a dreamy underwater world transforms into a disturbing journey into the repressed reality of climate change. Amidst sunken palaces and digital memories, an uncomfortable question arises: What are we willing to accept – and what must we repress in order to continue living? With original footage from an underwater robot of the GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre, live performance, and projections, an immersive journey is created. A dive into a possible future.

"The disappearance is nowhere more tangible than here."
