Andreas Gogol and Telemach Wiesinger (shown here), both regulars at Directors Lounge will present a fresh live performance of short 16mm and audio sequences.
Seit nunmehr 5 Jahren verknüpfen Telemach Wiesinger (Kinematographie)
& Andreas Gogol (Klangbilder) 16mm Film & analogen Live Ton zu einer
einzigartigen Verbindung. Mit ihrem Programm “LANDED TAKES & SOUND
TIMES” gewannen Sie den Team-Work Award des Stuttgarter Film-
Festivals für Expanded Media.
In Ihrer neuen Live-Performance präsentieren die beiden Bildenden
Künstler ein Konzentrat Ihrer bisherigen Zusammenarbeit aus Film und
Klang in weiterentwickelter Form. Immer variierend zusammengefügt und
anders interpretiert erfindet sich jede Aufführung dadurch neu.
Telemach Wiesinger schickt das Publikum mit zwei tragbaren 16mm
Projektoren und seinen Film-Takes auf Reisen in ferne Gebiete.
Andreas Gogol verspricht eine Verschmelzung aus 4 Track Tapes plus
live-Mikrofon. Bei “TAKES & TAPES” schliessen sich die Beschleunigung
und Reduktion nicht aus.

Babel Embassy vocalist and dancer Broziom sings in fantasy lyrics he describes as dada speak, although it sometimes sounds like segments of real languages. On stage he and dancer Eva Blaschke present a performance influenced by Laban and Butho techniques, accompanied by guitarist Marcin Dworski’s strange soundscapes. In his own words, “Babel Embassy is the sound life: Absurd, funny, and sometimes dark, a danceable pageant!”
Babel Embassy mit ihrem – Ethnotronic Dadawave – bieten den Soundtrack zu den Eruptionen des Kulturkrampfes, dessen Irrwitz durch die Tanzperformance vom Sänger Brozio und der Tänzerin Eva Blaschke drastisch vor Augen geführt wird. Broziom singt und babbelt in einer dadaartigen improvisierten Fantasiesprache. Der Ausnahmegitarrist Marcin Dworski haucht dabei den elektronischen beats und sounds Leben ein: Ein absurdes, witziges, düsteres, tanzbares Spektakel!

With urban interventions, artists try to play a more active role in society than just showing in a gallery space. The reasons and aims can be manyfold. Some artists see themselves as “political activist” and try to change politics and society; others just try to reach a different, more divers audience; or, they like to realize a seemingly impossible dream. All of them, however – even if the respective intervention is just the presence of the recording camera – share visions and ideas about urban life, on how to connect life, soul, street, architecture and society. And those inspirations may be infectious, beware!
