The Officine CAOS season “Different Sensations – 38th edition” continues its journey through multidisciplinary arts by hosting ALLORO_varietà aurea, a creation by Tecnologia Filosofica that transforms a path of golden traces into a visionary journey through shadows, icons, and metamorphoses. An immersive experience that intertwines body, light, and matter, where scraps become relics and memory turns into a landscape to be crossed.

“ALLORO_varietà aurea”
Tecnologia Filosofica (Turin)
ALLORO_varietà aurea opens along a path scattered with traces of gold — relics of a mythical time, archetypes of light and vision. It is a journey that unfolds like a passage carved into matter, a new ride aboard a time machine where shadows play, bodies become luminous, and electroacoustic sound boxes breathe like ancient creatures. The stage becomes a territory suspended between the sacred and the profane: furnishing relics, fragments of chandeliers, trinkets that preserve memories of falls and ascents. These are discarded objects coming back to life, as if summoned by a design of cosmic circular economy. Each object becomes a clue, a talisman, a small altar dedicated to metamorphosis.
The performance is a tribute to the golden dust that certain human beings leave on Earth: a wunderkammer of idols and tabernacles, cabaret divas, Olympic athletes, Byzantine icons, all seen through the golden gaze of an inner Frida. Figures that shine in the darkness and remind us of our most ancient need: to mythologize reality in order to return its fantastic dimension.

Tecnologia Filosofica
A Turin-based company active since 2000 and led by Francesca Cinalli and Paolo De Santis, Tecnologia Filosofica explores the body as a place of ritual, vision, and transformation. Their poetics intertwine dance, theatre, light, matter, and symbolic imaginaries, generating performative devices that oscillate between intimacy and apparition. Recognized by the Ministry of Culture as an innovative theatre production company (2025–27), the company collaborates with national and international institutions while maintaining a strong foundation in research and experimentation.
