Conceptual Approach:
The tension between magic powers and the deterministic run of events has been a vital
background during the times of writing of Macbeth. Mechanical-mathematical
models changed the knowledge about the solar system in those times radically and allowed precise
descriptions and forecasts. Inspired by the studying of the movements of the planetarium orbits, a system shall be staged
for this second act which puts a focus on orbits in a broader sense and its
power sources in multiple ways. A 'mysterium cosmographicum' is set up by machines simulating the
firmament from 16/17th century with its planetary movements. The efforts of the computing devices are audible by
transducers for electromagnetic fluxus. The equilibrium of the orbits displayed on the
computing devices is exposed to an 'anima motrix' like force that is adding or substracting momentum to the system.
