Description

Is free will real, or is it just an illusion created by chance in the course of human evolution? Is the human race doomed? Are we doomed or blessed by the illusion of our own ego?

These are also questions to which choreographer László Fülöp seeks an answer in the dance performance At the horizon of no return. The work created for the artistic troupe of the Studio Dance Theater deeply contemplates and reflects the situation and condition in which civilisation, the Earth, the Universe currently find themselves. As a starting point for his reflection, he takes the observation of the body, which consciously or unconsciously reacts to given events.

At every moment, humanity is constantly faced with the eternal struggle to maintain as much stability as possible in its life. To live in such a constant, from which, if we deviated, we would probably lose the reason to concern ourselves. It would no longer make sense to talk about a person as the main executive. But it seems that the only constant in nature is transformation itself (constant change) and we as the human species are looking at the horizon every moment without return. How do we respond to this call for constant change? By adapting to the flow of constant change, or by remaining mere observers on the fringes of these changing events, watching reality recede? If we remain in the role of observers, won't that also change us? How is consciousness present in this whole process? What is its essence and what is its role in our decision-making? Is it a tool that helps us overcome the limits and laws of our life (the universe) or is it just an accidental side effect?
