Welcome to The Desert of The Real

Jacque Lacan pointed that the “Truth lies in mistakes”. People are trying to break away from the behavior of control whereas they turned into the efforts of acquiring the power of control, and people are trying to architect and design their own fortunes while ultimately they become the targets of such efforts. “King Oedipus” eluded the truth of prophecy and ultimately he became the victim of the prophecy (The true story of murdering his father Laius and marrying his mother).

“Welcome to the desert of the real” still followed the concept of “theatre”, i.e., to develop and build a possibility of a live scene out of the multitudinous relationships. “Welcome to the true desert” will all along keep the human body into a network of relationships, present a live scene with the display of multiple systems that demonstrate a conflicting theme along with process for the change of time.

The starting point of “Welcome to the true desert” is based on a true report: a 16 year-old teenager from the rural region of China went to the city with his parents, the city had been regarded as the symbol of his future and he was trying to identify the true position that could leadhim to his future, however, only the fictitious world could give him a true position as well as internet games from where he could acquire his freedom. He tried his best he could to retreat from the realities, therefore, he had to rely on the fictitious world to determine his own destiny and he had to use illusions against fears, consequently, the reality and illusions were inosculated as a whole, and misconceptions, presumptions and misunderstandings were regarded as the behavioral foundations and in the end, his retreat from the realities incurred murder in the fictitious world to become a true incident.

It will be found that there is a relation between the juvenile and the five stories, which will force us to suppose that they are five fictional stories written in his laptop or it is a reflection from his life. Which one is closer to the reality? A fictional reality or the reality has been fabricated?

The reality has been separated and concatenate at the same time, the process is showing us the reality from the daily life, and moreover, it is also showing a way of how to describe the realistic approach. We are always trying to follow this way to re-understand our complex and precarious living reality, and more important to offering an overlap space; a winding co-reference field with real and virtual, reality and fantasy; and a scene that the audience can clip their own version by using the knowledge and experience of their own, participate and judge, which is all through this treatment.
