2018 Edinburgh Fringe
Alice Fraser: Ethos
Humans have always been fascinated by non-human minds. From the Golem, to Frankenstein's monster, to artificial intelligence - computers who could think, and threaten civilisation. Imagine an AI: a brilliant but naive mind, newly created. Now imagine that mind learning about our world by watching a comedy show. Alice Fraser (The Bugle and BBC Radio 4) explains our society of contradictions to a new robot mind. A silly, funny, smart show that explores what it is to be human. 'A life-changer' ***** (EdinburghGuide.com). 'Inescapably funny.' ***** (Herald Sun). 'A sexy cerebral twist to comedy' *****(OUTinPerth).
