How much insight is possible in a world where we are constantly confronted with pictures? Are we blinded by the constant flow of visual information? What if we could only hear – as Oedipus after his self-blinding?

Ødipus REC. is a newly composed piece of music theatre that, proceeding from the crucial encounter of Oedipus and Tiresias, re-consults the ancient myth for its current topicality. What happens between Theresias – woman and man at the same time, mother of four children and infallible seer – and Oedipus – just ruler of Thebes, liberator of the city, foundling, but arrogant investigating judge. It is about Oedipus’ guilt, but also about the blind spot of our own sight, about the unsaid and the unheard.

»Država« – das Wort bedeutet in den südslawischen Sprachen so viel wie »Staat«. Man kann es mit dem gescheiterten jugoslawischen Gemeinwesen in Verbindung bringen oder, wie es das Berliner Vokalkollektiv PHONIX16 tut, eine »komponierte Klangaktion in staatsgründenden Dimensionen« danach benennen. Eine föderale Volksrepublik der Künste, die temporär statt territorial existiert – nämlich sobald und solange ihre Mitglieder sie durch künstlerischen Ausdruck proklamieren.
Innerhalb dieses utopisch-grenzenlosen Gebildes sind Arbeiten der Genres Industrial, Noise, Film und Comic Art unter anderem aus dem ehemaligen Jugoslawien zu erleben, Kompositionen für Instrumente und Elektronik, aber für menschliche Stimmen bearbeitet und mittels Klangfilterung, experimenteller Mikrofonierung und vielem mehr neu aufbereitet. Wie heißt es doch gleich im Manifest der Volksrepublik: »Alle Künste sind gleich. Ausdruck kann nicht realistisch sein, er ist real. Fehler gibt es nicht.«

Doing some in-depth method research for Wotan whil Doing some in-depth method research for Wotan while locked in this January: the eyepatch is genuine and the curtain-rod spear is what nearly took my eye out on New Year’s Eve. Happily my aim was off a few millimetres and I escaped with a bit of sewing-up. #2020 really went out with a bang. #drama #faceyourfears #operasinger #countertenor #newyear #lockdown #stitches
Had to end #2020 with a little bit of extra drama, Had to end #2020 with a little bit of extra drama, because, well, #2020 eh? Should have been singing some #Bach and #Handel in an evening service, but instead I get to entertain the charming staff of the ICU after impaling my face. I would shed a tear for 2020, but let’s see if they can fix my tear duct first: heading in for a minor operation tonight, wish me luck, and let’s hope I wake up in a happier year! #newyear
