Bruno and Sebastian are actors. They were trained at INSAS (National Institute for Artistic show, Brussels). Sebastian meanwhile also became director.

Bruno has played in most of the shows that Sebastian directed. Then for three years, they have lost views.

Meanwhile with friends Bruno created in Brussels ”Le dojo de l’Usine” where they regularly practice Aïki, the traditional Japanese sword,  and noh theater, around the Japanese master Masato Matsuura, founder of  Sayu  school. They among other things adapted "Antigone" by Sophocles on the basics of noh theater. Current shows and demonstrations linked to the activities of the school are regularly performed in Belgium, France, Italy, Japan..

Sebastian, meanwhile, played for the company Point Zero (based also in Brussels) in many famous puppet shows for adults such as “The Tempest”, “The School of ventriloquists”, “The three old”… These puppet shows have been traveling around the world.

After these experiments each conducted on their side, Bruno and Sebastian have decided to meet again on stage for improvisations whose sole purpose was to respond to the proposal of the other. In an action of a feedback immediately answered the other. After hours of improvisation, the theme of "robot" has emerged. They do not try to mimic the robot but to look like men with the assumption that they are already robots,(electronic puppets)

After a first draft presented to  La Bellone (Brussels) they met Claire Diez (dramatist). She helped to develop and deepen the theme of robot toward scientific and spiritual dimension. The gestures work as a starting point for a metalanguage in constant evolution.

If in the show there are no words or very few, their body language was extended from workshops they made with Aude Cartoux. She trained with Anna Halprin and transmitted by "scoring" the opportunity to build their show with new tools…

Cosmic Robota was finalized with Pierre Jacqmin to sound: the principle is to expand the imaginary space and support different situations. By sensors and other microphones plugged in a special way, he composed the music using all sounds of actors, mixes and live broadcasts. The sound here is the third player.

Gaetan Van Den Berg, by his lights, gives an aesthetic coherence throughout by guiding the viewer's eye through the minds of our two humanoid unleashed.

Bruno & Seb.

Attention : le spectacteur est soumis à l'expérience directe de l'action et de son Feedback
