Duration: 60 minutes

The first online community for the deceased. Now you can finally take your social media obsession into the afterlife! In this interactive multimedia show, audience members will receive light-pointers and will be instructed on how to use them by the performers to create a dazzling show of flashes and fizzles that you'll remember till your dying day

Facebook, MySpace, Friendster, LinkedIn – it’s almost a full- time job keeping up with all these online communities. And now tech- theatre group PiPS:lab wants us to join another one: DieSpace. There is one prerequisite though: you have to be dead to join. Because of the population ageing of our society, civil attention will shift from the youth to the old, dying and death. And it turns out that dead people don’t have a place to socialize yet. PIPS:lab jumped at this great business opportunity and created DieSpace: the first active internet community for the deceased. With granny’s skateboarding on walking frames, musical wheelchairs, laptops, cameras and light sensors PIPS:lab presents an interactive and song soaked show about life after death. You have a death wish but are hesitant to pursue your dream? With DieSpace you can leave your life and loved ones behind with complete peace of mind!

Each visitor of the show will get a free DieSpace light account to start out with. So from now on, there’s only one thing to fear after death: whether or not you’ll make enough friends on DieSpace.
