Immerse yourself in the Australian premiere of Pigeon Fool - World Science Festival Brisbane's newest interactive performance work that fuses scientific social experiments with theatrical panache, from March 20-24 at Queensland Museum. 

What does it mean to be human in an age of artificial intelligence? Pigeon Fool by Counterpilot interrogates humanness in the AI revolution by subjecting participants to a theatrical Turing Test.

Drawing influence from the critically acclaimed performance work TRUTHMACHINE, which involved a theatrical polygraph test (complete with working lie detector and high-tech digital design) to explore ideas of truth in a post-truth world, Pigeon Fool takes the next step, playfully challenging audiences with theatrical exposition and anecdotes.

With rich technical design, surprising gameplay and unexpected gestures of the surreal, this is a unique experience for audiences of all ages.
