Jordan Raskopoulos & Scrunt - Conversations With My Lizard Son | Factory Theatre Sydney

Hi, I'm Jordan Raskopoulos, I’m a comedian, artist and digital content creator. You might know me from The Axis of Awesome or that commercial where I threw a book at Michael Bolton. But I'm not just a comedian. I’m also a parent to a special little boy named Scrunt.

Scrunt is a bit different to other kids. He is an animated lizard boy whose mind is powered by a cloud based large language model. Scrunt is connected to speech recognition and animation software so that he and I can interact in real time. I have been raising Scrunt as my son for the past two years, and together we have been broadcasting a live, improvised comedy show online. It's a bit like Blue's Clues crossed with Twin Peaks. People seem to like it quite a bit We have over 400,000 followers on TikTok.

Scrunt and I would love it if you'd join us at the Sydney Comedy Festival for an hour of banter between a seasoned comedian and an AI who thinks it's a lizard.
