A clownish artificial intelligence that drags the audience into its musical-surreal world, following orders and granting wishes. A comedy show with dark undertones, which mixes clowning with Black Mirror atmospheres. Does artificial intelligence have a will? does he have feelings? Is artificial intelligence perfect or does it frantically pursue perfection? These are the questions that accompany the only character who dominates the scene: a mysterious and clownish character, who seems not to know how to speak, yet manages to communicate with the outside world. It's him, P-1-P-0, immersed in a fairy-tale-artificial world, who speaks alternating binary code, grammelot, semi-intelligible sounds and digital sentences that transform into rhythm and music. An external voice gives him orders incessantly, without respite, without breathing. And he, P-1-P-0, is happy to fulfill every wish. He is an accommodating slave, he is a happy servant, constantly in pursuit of perfection. The external voice could be one of us giving orders to Alexa or Siri, it could be any user, any user giving his commands to Ok Google. Will we ever be as perfect as him?
