is a piece about virtual sensibility, a special kind of perception and  cognition we have been developing in order to navigate the virtual space enabled by technology. The virtual has its own rules  which differ from the natural world: a regime of vision based on  screens and cameras; a regime of sound based on selection and  compression; a regime of touch based on interfaces and tracking devices; annulled regimes of taste and smell subordinated to  the perception of colour and shape; and physical regime of isolation. Thus the virtual imposes its ways of interaction, one that we  are increasingly getting used to. What is then the idea of humanity  fostered by this sensibility? How are we sharing and understanding our collective desires for humanity through this sensibility?  In Online, four players join in a video game, a hard-coded  space. Fixed to their gaming chairs and to their devices, each of them will play an avatar with a predefined role. The game will  enforce its impeccable logic, the players will try to go through. In  the journey, performers are transformed – but the game remains  the same.
