TRAUMA BAR UND KINO

We are navigating through new modalities of adaptation and intuitive curation. Our first indoor event in a while will be a soft evening with two live performances and a screening, with no deliberate connection.The event has limited capacity, please purchase your tickets online in advance.Audrey Chen [live]&quot;Audrey Chen has created an uncompromising and idiosyncratic music, tightly disciplined yet acoustically wild and heavy with implication. Her ultra-verbal vocalising, often reminiscent of the visceral and emotionally charged sound poetry of François Dufréne or Henri Chopin, exposes physiological aspects of utterance that are concealed within standardised articulation and day to day speech. Fleshy, breath-driven and flecked with spittle, Chen&#x27;s voice emanates not just from her mouth but from an ensemble of upper body surfaces, channels, passages, and cavities.&quot; - Julien Cowley THE WIREChen’s work delves deeply into her own version of narrative and non-linear storytelling. A large component of her music is improvised, is completely un-processed and her approach to this is extremely personal and visceral. Her playing explores the combination and layering of an analog synthesiser, preparations and traditional and extended techniques in both the voice and cello. She works to join these elements into a singular ecstatic personal language.<a href="http://www.audreychen.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://www.audreychen.com/</a>____________Gajek [live]Gajek presents the latest live depiction of his freshly released album “Vitamin D”. From an East German perspective Vitamin D inscribes itself into the progressive myth of Krautrock by shifting the focus to a different side of German history marked by the material traces of the Cold War. This is music that knows about the coexistence of modernism and its ruins, music about the fact that both can be there at the same time: space programs and the damp smell of unheated houses.Boldly expanding a futuristic and strikingly original musical language Gajek creates a beautiful and deeply moving work of great sincerity and emotional immediacy, making a provocative case for pushing what is possible in a world occupied with calculating what is probable.Matti Gajek considers himself a product of socialist biohacking. Injected with high doses of vitamin D directly after birth, the GDR made sure his bones would be strong even if he never saw the sun.<a href="https://gajek.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://gajek.bandcamp.com/</a>____________Lawrence Lek : Sinofuturism (1839-2046 AD) - [screening]Sinofuturism is a video essay combining elements of science fiction, documentary melodrama, social realism, and Chinese cosmologies, in order to critique the present-day dilemmas of China and the people of its diaspora.With reference to Afrofuturism and Gulf Futurism, Sinofuturism presents a critical and playful approach to subverting cultural clichés.In Western media and Orientalist perceptions, China is exotic, strange, bizarre, kitsch, tacky, or cheap. In its domestic media, China portrayed as heroic, stable, historic, grand, and unified. Rather than counteract these skewed narratives, Sinofuturism proposes to push them much further. By embracing seven key stereotypes of Chinese society (Computing, Copying, Gaming, Studying, Addiction, Labour and Gambling), it shows how China&#x27;s technological development can be seen as a form of Artificial Intelligence.<a href="https://lawrencelek.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://lawrencelek.com/</a>- presented with the support of Shape platform- artwork : Paul Barsch for Gajek ____________All guests attending this limited event are required to follow house rules put in place to limit contact between guests and the potential spread of COVID-19.
