"an outcast night"
- Confused anachronistic creatures cripwalking through time and fog.
>We must fight against transparency everywhere... We demand the right not to be understood.<
It´s an outcast night. A psycho-geographic landscape is presented in the anarchist club.
A performative setup with a map from 1910; misty and deviant subjects, and the blurring of narratives with theory and smoke. Spray. Laser. Fog. Fainting. Crip.


Even the ones who laugh are sometimes caught without an answer: these creatures who introduce themselves but we swear we have met them somewhere before.... Yes, look in the mirror. What do you see? Is it a dream, or a nightmare? Are we being introduced against our will? Are they mirrors? I can see the smoke. I can smell the fire. The battle is drawing nigh. - The Log Lady
As part of Impulstanz Festival's Turbo artist in residency program, and taking David Lynch’s Log Lady monologues as a starting point, the performance project ONS is linking sound composition, text and choreography. The key question is: how does the body’s memory transform and interfere with sound and visual principles?
