promotion of theatre company 'de Schuur' for their production 'Superposition'.
Super­po­si­tion is an idealistic show as well as an absurd mathe­ma­tical equation: the simi­la­ri­ties and differences between the Netherlands and Japan, between probability and geometry, between man and woman and between newness and tradition are contrasted. A performance about wanting to get through to each other and trying to understand the true inner being of humans, albeit via a giant detour.
As you know from the preceding lessons culture and its differencies / similarities have all my attention.
