Songs statt Sex

“Rotes Licht, ein opulenter Sessel und ein Telefon. Daneben auf einem Taschentuch der Hinweis: ‘Call me! 8426′ – verziert mit einem Kussmund. Ich tippe 8-4-2-6 und am anderen Ende ertönt eine angenehm tiefe Frauenstimme. ‘Was möchtest du?’, haucht sie in den Hörer. Ich habe die Wahl zwischen Jungfrau, bad girl oder Alleskönnerin. Wäre ich ein Mann, würde ich mich jetzt komisch fühlen. Ich nehme Carmen. Sogleich schmettert mir eine Arie ans Ohr. Wie diese Carmen wohl aussieht? Jedenfalls klingt sie ganz anders als die süße Marilyn vom Telefonat vorhin. Impulsiver. Nach einem letzten ‘Ahhh!’ und einem intensiven Moment der Stille fragt sie: ‘Möchtest du noch etwas hören?’ ”

Absinth Aperitif Soiree
Wednesday, January 11th, 2012“Developed by the award-winning Per Aspera Productions, Exposure Berlin is based on The Breasts of Tireasias by Appollinaire–the work for which the word ‘surrealist’ was first invented. Exposure Berlin is being performed in English, German and French, and it features new music, surrealist animation, a live-feed camera, a circus, and more! Developed specifically for the Delphi Cinema, channelling the spirit of the Golden 20′s in Berlin, we invite you to come enjoy the preview of this new multi-media show.”
Plus a silent film screening, swing dancing, and more! For the full list of entertainment, click here.

Haus der Kulturen der Welt
Wednesday, March 30th, 2011When relocating to Berlin, I didn’t expect to find such an interesting project so quickly. But here I am, SHAZAM! breaking in on the experimental film scene just like that.
I’m singing in a film project by Reynold Reynolds at the Haus der Kulturen der Welt. The footage will likely not be available for another couple of years, as it is an extensive and intricate project funded almost entirely by grants, residencies and the such. But in the meantime, you can catch the final public performance this Friday (01 April 2011) at Haus der Kulturen der Welt.
Doors are always open, show starts at 18:00.
