@extraless ‘Report’ - online and offline now circulating 🌍
Reimagining the corporation for a new generation means accepting and embracing the idea that profit can no longer be the sole motivator for business. By adopting the logic of ‘Futurethought’, culture, community, and ecology must be recognised as integral, albeit often silent, partners that are crucial stakeholders in a company’s future success. To explore and embody this shift, EXTRALESS and OK-RM have merged minds in an ongoing collaboration. This partnership delves into the harmonies, contrasts, and potential of what it means to pursue a truly collective project. The first major output, Report 01, is a performance piece structured in three acts, each composed of three movements.
These movements draw inspiration from the EXTRALESS manifesto, focusing on three key themes: “Noticeably Normal,” “Shared Humanity,” and “Autonomy of the Self”. Performed by Edwin Louis, Zahra Van Nguyen, and Yiling Zhao, with movement direction by Lewis Walker, the acts are accompanied by unique scores from EXTRALESS co-founder Tokunbo Fatona. The musical scores, set design, and choreography are based on the geometry of the EXTRALESS
symbol, aiming to create a cohesion that transcends logic.
The performance is captured by an intricate system, oscillating between subjective and objective views, operated by Joseph Reddy, Anna-Lena Krause, and their crew. The garments, also known as Softwear and Lifetools, are designed by Badé and Tokunbo Fatona, with styling by Gerry O’Kane, and hair and makeup by Takuya Uchiyama. Site programming Tristan Bagot.
