Part of “Berlin bleibt #3”

Inspired by the “Jazzstylecorner” movement and Berlin's graffiti scene, choreographer Kadir Amigo Memiş has been working at the intersection of writing and dance since 2005. In the dance performance “Opferschicht”, he examines the urban cultural practice of “Scratchiti” – etching statements onto city surfaces – and combines it with special “popping” techniques.

Jota Mombaça in her video work envisions a body that transcends colonial binaries and expedient figurations of gender, sexuality and humanness which keep us separated from the natural world.

The smartphone app “Loulu” invites the players to take part in an interactive fiction. The single player game makes manipulation tactics and attempts to shift the discourse by new right-wing networks tangible and demonstrates that social platforms on the internet can be the perfect breeding ground for targeted radicalization.

Full of dark humour and surrealist imagery, Ligia Lewis’ new work “Still Not Still” evokes with poetic force a unique theatrical language, disrupting any fantasy of historical progress. The choreographic composition for seven performers deals with the centuries-old and ongoing exclusions of black and non-white people from the historical record.
