Dromos Audio Visual Installation, in the fields of science and technique that have built the western world, we have only conceived machines dedicated to increasing speed. the person who would invent a slowing down apparatus would be regarded as an absurd man‘, Virilio says.
Dromos Audio Visual Installation3
The French thinker Paul Viri recognized that technology speeds up the human’s rate of work .Inspired by that theory, Duo Maotik and Fraction presented a performance called Dromos. Known as 360 degrees immersive performance the show takes you away in an audio visual illusion experience experimenting the effect of technology on time, space and human’s mind.

The variations of the geometric shapes and lines with the music effect and the light control the speed of the time by speeding it up or slowing it down. The experiment is a sensual experience that separates your mind from the world of reality taking you to another universe while immersing you in the installation.
