The company
Blast Theory is renowned internationally as one of the most adventurous artists' groups using interactive media. Led by Matt Adams, Ju Row Farr and Nick Tandavanitj the group has a team of six and is based in Brighton. The group's work explores interactivity and the relationship between real and virtual space with a particular focus on the social and political aspects of technology. It confronts a media saturated world in which popular culture rules, using video, computers, performance, installation, mobile and online technologies to ask questions about the ideologies present in the information that envelops us.

The assembly
Renowned for its maverick mix of location-based gaming and interactive performance, Brighton's BAFTA-nominated Blast Theory excels in off-kilter, off-road theatre! Now, Rider Spoke, developed with the Mixed Reality Lab, is Blast Theory's latest portable performance, inviting you to literally saddle up and hit the streets.
Use our Trek bikes or bring your own and you'll be fitted out with a helmet, a handlebar-mounted video consul and headset. Then you're off! Prompted by the technology, each player embarks on a personal journey, seeking out the city's secret spaces and hidden sanctuaries, answering questions, recording memories or simply eavesdropping on your fellow players.
