A person in an empty space full of touchscreens tries to connect with the world outside through the looking glass, to feel, to sense, to hold and to touch. He navigates himself and searches for his voice in a world where screens control his life and tell him where to go and when he arrived at his destination, entering a technological wonderland.

A solo performance for an isolated performer that explores the relation between the individual and the society in a changing world, and examines the interaction between the body and the screen through the sense of touch.
