Natasha Tsakos' multimedia theatrical adventure

Prevoditelj: Tilen Pigac - EFZG Recezent: Mislav Ante Omazić - EFZG

I love theater.

Volim kazalište.

I love the idea that you can transform, become somebody else

Volim ideju da se možete preobraziti, postati netko drugi

and look at life with a completely new perspective.

i gledati na život s potpuno novom perspektivom.

I love the idea that people will sit in one room for a couple of hours and listen.

Volim ideju da će ljudi sjediti u jednoj prostoriji nekoliko sati i slušati.

The idea that in that room at that moment,

Ideju da u toj prostoriji u tom trenutku,

everyone, regardless of their age, their gender, their race, their color, their religion,

svi, bez obzira na njihovu dob, njihov spol, njihovu rasu, njihovu boju, njihovu religiju,

comes together.

dolaze zajedno.

At that moment, we transcend space and time together.

U tom trenutku, spajamo zajedno prostor i vrijeme.

Theater awakens our senses and opens the door to our imagination.

Kazalište pobuđuje naša osjetila i otvara vrata našoj mašti.

And our ability to imagine is what makes us explorers.

A naša sposobnost da maštamo je ono što nas čini istraživačima.

Our ability to imagine makes us inventors and creators and unique.

Naša sposobnost da maštamo je ono što nas čini izumiteljima i stvarateljima i jedinstvenima.

I was commissioned in 2003 to create an original show,

2003. godine sam zadužena da kreiram originalan show

and began developing "Upwake."

i počela sam razvijati "Nadobudan."

"Upwake" tells the story of Zero,

"Nadobudan" priča priču o Nuli,

a modern-day business man, going to work with his life in a suitcase,

modernom poslovnom čovjeku, koji odlazi na posao noseći svoj život u kovčegu,

stuck between dream and reality and not able to decipher the two.

koji je zaglavio između sna i stvarnosti i nije u mogućnosti dešifrirati ta dva.

I wanted "Upwake" to have the same audiovisual qualities as a movie would.

Željela sam da "Nadobudan" ima istu audiovizualnu kvalitetu poput filma.

And I wanted to let my imagination run wild.

I željela sam da moja mašta poludi.

So I began drawing the story that was moving in my head.

Stoga sam počela crtati priču koja se kretala u mojoj glavi.

If Antoine de Saint-Exupery, the author of "The Little Prince," were here,

Kada bi Antoine de Saint-Exupery, autor "Malog Princa", bio ovdje,

he would have drawn three holes inside that box

nacrtao bi tri rupe unutar te kutije

and told you your sheep was inside.

i rekao vam kako je vaša ovca unutra.

Because, if you look closely enough, things will begin to appear.

Jer, ako pobliže pogledate, stvari će se početi pojavljivati.

This is not a box; these are the renderings of my imagination

Ovo nije kutija; ovo su obrisi moje mašte

from head to paper to screen to life.

iz glave na papiru te na ekranu kojima je udahnut život.

In "Upwake" buildings wear suits, Zero tap dances on a giant keyboard,

U djelu "Nadobudan" zgrade nose odjela, Nula pleše tap na golemoj tipkovnici,

clones himself with a scanner, tames and whips the computer mice,

klonira se pomoću skenera, zarobljuje i bičuje kompjuterski miš,

sails away into dreamscape from a single piece of paper and launches into space.

otplovljava u krajobraz snova zbog jednog komadića papira, i lansira se u svemir.

I wanted to create environments that moved and morphed like an illusionist.

Željela sam stvoriti okolinu koja se micala i preobražavala poput iluzija.

Go from one world to another in a second.

Ići od jednog do drugog svijeta u sekundi.

I wanted to have humor, beauty, simplicity and complexity

Željela sam imati humor, ljepotu, jednostavnost i kompleksnost

and use metaphors to suggest ideas.

i željela sam koristiti metafore kako bih sugestirala ideje.

At the beginning of the show, for example, Zero deejays dream and reality.

Na početku predstave, na primjer, Nula je u ulozi DJ-a snova i stvarnosti.

Technology is an instrument that allowed me to manifest my visions

Tehnologija je instrument koji mi omogućava da manifestiram svoje vizije

in high definition, live, on stage.

u visokoj rezoluciji, uživo, na pozornici.

So today, I would like to talk to you about the relationship

Stoga bih danas voljela pričati o povezanosti

between theater and technology.

kazališta i tehnologije.

Let's start with technology.

Počnimo s tehnologijom.

(Fuse blowing)

(Fitilj gori)

All right. Let's start with theater.

U redu. Počnimo s kazalištem.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

(Buzzing)

(Zvonjenje)

(Click, click, bang)

(Klik, klik, bang)

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

(Applause)

(Pljesak)

Thank you.

Hvala vam.

"Upwake" lasts 52 minutes and 54 seconds.

"Nadobudan" traje pedeset i dvije minute i pedeset i četiri sekunde.

I project 3D animation on all the four surfaces of the stage

Projiciram 3-D animaciju na sve četiri površine pozornice

which I interact with.

s kojima sam u interakciji.

The use of animation and projection was a process of discovery.

Uporaba animacija i projekcije je bila proces otkrivanja.

I didn't use it as a special effect, but as a partner on stage.

Nisam je koristila kao specijalni efekt, već kao partnera na pozornici.

There are no special effects in "Upwake," no artifice.

Ne postoje specijalni efekti u "Nadobudnom", nema umjetnih stvari.

It's as lavish and intricate as it is simple and minimal.

Toliko je raskošan i zapetljan koliko je jednostavan i minimalan.

Three hundred and forty-four frames, four and a half years and commissions later,

Tristo četrdeset i četiri slike, četiri i pol godine te provizija kasnije,

what started as a one person show became a collaborative work

ono što je počelo kao show jednog čovjeka, postalo je udruženo djelo

of nineteen most talented artists.

devetnaest najtalentiranijih umjetnika.

And here are some excerpts.

A ovdje su neki isječci.

(Applause)

(Pljesak)

Thank you.

Hvala vam.

So this is, relatively, a new show that we're now beginning to tour.

Dakle, ovo je, relativno novi show s kojim počinjemo turneju.

And in Austin, Texas,

A u Austinu, Teksas,

I was asked to give small demonstrations in schools during the afternoon.

zamolili su me da dam malu demonstraciju u školama tijekom popodneva.

When I arrived at one of the schools, I certainly did not expect this:

Kada sam stigla u jednu od škola, definitivno nisam to očekivala:

Six hundred kids, packed in a gymnasium, waiting.

Šest stotina djece, natrpanih u gimnastičku dvoranu, čekaju.

I was a little nervous performing without animation, costume -- really -- and make-up.

Bila sam malo nervozna što nastupam bez animacija, kostima -- doista -- i šminke.

But the teachers came to me afterward and told me

Ali nakon toga, učitelji su došli do mene i rekli mi

they hadn't seen the kids that attentive.

kako još nisu vidjeli da djeca toliko paze.

And I think the reason why is that I was able to use their language and their reality

I mislim kako je razlog tome što sam iskoristila njihov jezik i njihovu stvarnost

in order to transport them into another.

kako bih ih prebacila u neku drugu.

Something happened along the way.

Nešto se dogodilo tijekom toga.

Zero became a person and not just a character in a play.

Nula je postao osoba a ne samo lik u predstavi.

Zero does not speak, is neither man nor woman.

Nula ne priča, nije ni muškarac niti žena.

Zero is Zero, a little hero of the 21st Century,

Nula je Nula. Mali heroj 21. stoljeća.

and Zero can touch so many more people than I possibly could.

A Nula može doprijeti do puno više ljudi nego bih ja ikada mogla.

It's as much about bringing new disciplines inside this box

Toliko se radi o uvođenju novih disciplina u tu kutiju

as it is about taking theater out of its box.

koliko i o razmišljanju o kazalištu izvan kutije.

As a street performer, I have learned that everybody wants to connect.

Kao ulični izvođač, naučila sam da se svatko želi povezati.

And that usually, if you're a bit extraordinary, if you're not exactly of human appearance,

A tada uobičajeno, ako ste pomalo izvanredni, i ako niste baš ljudskog izgleda,

then people will feel inclined to participate and to feel out loud.

ljudi će se naginjati ka tome da sudjeluju i da osjećaju naglas.

It's as though you made something resonate within them.

To je kao da ste poteknuli neki smisao unutar njih samih.

It's as though the mystery of the person they're interacting with and connecting

To je kao da im tajnovitost osobe s kojom su u interakciji i s kojom komuniciraju

allows them to be themselves just a bit more.

omogućava da budu svoji malo više.

Because through your mask, they let theirs go.

Jer kroz vašu masku, oni svoje skinu.

Being human is an art form.

Biti čovjek je oblik umjetnosti.

I know theater can improve the quality of people's lives,

Znam da kazalište može poboljšati kvalitetu ljudskih života,

and I know theater can heal.

i znam da kazalište može liječiti.

I've worked as a doctor clown in a hospital for two years.

Radila sam kao klaun doktor u bolnici dvije godine.

I have seen sick kids and sad parents and doctors

Vidjela sam bolesnu djecu i tužne roditelje i doktore

be lifted and transported in moments of pure joy.

koji su bili podignuti i transportirani u trenutke čiste radosti.

I know theater unites us.

Znam da nas kazalište združuje.

Zero wants to engage the generation of today and tomorrow,

Nula želi potaknuti generaciju današnjice i sutrašnjice.

tell various stories through different mediums.

Pričati različite priče kroz različite medije.

Comic books. Quantum physics video games.

Stripovi. Video igre o kvantnoj fizici.

And Zero wants to go to the moon.

I Nula želi ići na Mjesec.

In 2007, Zero launched a green campaign,

2007. Nula je pokrenuo zelenu kampanju,

suggesting his friends and fans to turn off their electricity

predlažući svojim prijateljima i obožavateljima da isključe električnu struju

every Sunday from 7:53 to 8:00 p.m.

svake nedjelje od 7:53 do 8:00 navečer.

The idea is simple, basic. It's not original,

Ideja je jednostavna, osnovna. Nije originalna,

but it's important, and it's important to participate.

ali je važna, i važno je sudjelovati.

There is a revolution.

Tamo je revolucija.

It's a human and technological revolution.

Ljudska i tehnološka revolucija.

It's motion and emotion.

To je kretanje i emocija.

It's information.

To je informacija.

It's visual. It's musical. It's sensorial.

Vizualno je. Glazbeno je. Osjetilno je.

It's conceptual. It's universal. It's beyond words and numbers.

Konceptualno je. Univerzalno je. To je iznad riječi i brojeva.

It's happening.

Događa se.

The natural progression of science and art

Prirodni napredak znanosti i umjetnosti

finding each other to better touch and define the human experience.

koji pronalaze jedan drugoga kako bi bolje dodirivali i definirali ljudsko iskustvo.

There is a revolution in the way that we think,

Postoji revolucija u načinu na koji razmišljamo,

in the way that we share, and the way that we express our stories,

načinu na koji dijelimo, i načinu na koji izražavamo naše priče,

our evolution.

našu evoluciju.

This is a time of communication, connection and creative collaboration.

Ovo je vrijeme komunikacije, povezanosti i kreativne suradnje.

Charlie Chaplin innovated motion pictures

Charlie Chaplin je inovirao slike u pokretu

and told stories through music, silence, humor and poetry.

i pričao priče kroz glazbu, tišinu, humor i poeziju.

He was social, and his character, The Tramp, spoke to millions.

Bio je društven, a njegov lik, The Tramp, je dopirao do milijuna.

He gave entertainment, pleasure and relief to so many human beings

Dao je zabavu, zadovoljstvo, olakšanje tolikim ljudskim bićima

when they needed it the most.

kada im je to bilo najviše potrebno.

We are not here to question the possible; we are here to challenge the impossible.

Nismo ovdje kako bi ispitivali moguće; ovdje smo kako bi izazivali nemoguće.

In the science of today, we become artists.

U današnjoj znanosti, postajemo umjetnici.

In the art of today, we become scientists.

U današnjoj umjetnosti, postajemo znanstvenici.

We design our world. We invent possibilities.

Dizajniramo naš svijet. Osmišljavamo mogućnosti.

We teach, touch and move.

Podučavamo, dodirujemo i pomičemo.

It is now that we can use the diversity of our talents

Sada možemo koristiti raznolikost naših talenata

to create intelligent, meaningful and extraordinary work. It's now.

kako bi stvorili inteligentan, značajan i izvanredan rad. Ubrzati.

(Ringing)

(Zvonjenje)

Thank you.

Hvala vam.
