Using real biometric sensors and live voting systems, TRUTHMACHINE seeks out truth in a world of fake news and alternative facts. The polygraph machine used to be regarded as a legal instrument, but today we think we can cheat. Let’s see if your heart rate can lie as effectively as world leaders can.
Blurring the line between cutting edge technology and live performance, TRUTHMACHINE – the multi-award-winning social experiment from Australian theatre collective and techno-troublemakers, Counterpilot – is an intimate, playful, and intriguing theatrical experience for adventurous audiences.
