The Demo World Premiere Bing Concert Hall 2015

This documentary captures the world premiere of "The Demo," a music theater work created by composer/performers Mikel Rouse and Ben Neill. The project is inspired by Douglas Engelbart’s groundbreaking 1968 demonstration of early computer technology, which introduced concepts that are now integral to modern computing, such as videoconferencing and the computer mouse.

Running for 92 minutes, The Demo creatively re-imagines Engelbart's historic demonstration as a hybrid performance that combines music and technology. It showcases how artistic expression can intersect with technological advancement, providing a thought-provoking reflection on the evolution of digital communication and collaboration.
