A SENSE OF TIME

Lab concert, feat. a song by Mikis Theodorakis, ADAF Greece online 2022

In our laboratory, Stock and I are using our newly built MIDI-controllers pendulum and crank for the first time. The piece is a vivisection of Mikis Theodorakis‘ song „Tin porta anigo to vradi“, from Ta Lyrica, lyrics by Tassos Livaditis.

Since the basic idea of cranking a MIDI-Sequence is derived from the functionality of a music box, the original music box needs its place in the lab as well. And since the „triplet“, an instrument initially used in a theatre show in 2015, is still working, this punchcard dj instrument appears likewise.

Thank you Philipp for your lovely camera work.

EXCALIBUR CITY (2020)

Late nineties. Two vietnamese sisters escape from Czech Republic to Germany trying to find their mother. The older one knows that there are cristals in the jacket of the younger one, to pay the human trafficker. In order to protect her younger sister, she makes up a story that the cristals are not Crystal Meth, but a substance that gives you the power of a wolf. This will have terrible consequences.
