Memo happens in the Unique Birthday Section of the Memory of an ordinary lady. There, three people are patiently waiting the entrance of the experiences of this person and are responsible to build, maintain and transmit her memories, in a constant struggle to keep them unchanged. And, surely, this struggle against the inexorable expiry of memory, despite knowing it is sterile and doomed to failure, is at the core of what defines us as beings. As usual in the productions of Señor Serrano, Memo is formalized through a mixture of languages and disciplines. A group of three dancers-performers conform the physical body of the piece, through choreography and, above all, scores of movement and action. They bear the main weight of the dramaturgy through the execution of the different scenes, based on the handling of objects, performing choreographies, using multimedia technologies and other physical and visual resources. As it has been recurrent in our trajectory, the capture of live video and the application of real-time image effects is one of the most remarkable tools of the piece, increasing, fractionating, multiplying or distorting what happens on the scene to add meaning to the action. The final result of Memo is that of a visual / dance piece with predominance of plastic, sound and gestural composition.
