Flora et Labora - REM-Live-Streaming-Garten-Show

Born in Israel in 1981, now residing in Berlin.
guitarist, multi instrumentalist, improviser-composer and a poet.

Ido Bukelman has been exploring ways to extract an ever-widening range of tones, challenging as well as delicate, from his instruments since the age of twelve.
He has developed a highly idiosyncratic style since releasing his first trio album, City Tail, in 2009. At the time, he tended to reference saxophonist Ornette Coleman's harmolidics and guitarist Jimi Hendrix pyrotechnics.

Die deutsch-französin Marine Madelin ist die älteste von vier Musiker Geschwistern. Sie kommt als Kind mit Musik und Tanz in Berührung, als sie mit ihrer Familie über einer Musikschule wohnt. So beginnt sie zuerst mit dem Klavier- und dem Blockflötenspiel und entdeckt auch das Ballett. Ihre Begeisterung für das Singen führt sie in das Pariser Musik Gymnasium, wo sie im Chor (La Maîtrise de Paris) ihre Leidenschaft für die Bühne entdeckt. Nach dem Baccalauréat beginnt die Sopranistin ihre Professionelle Ausbildung an der Musikhochschule in Freiburg, wo sie ihre ersten Auftritte als Solistin hat. Im Sommer 2021 schloss sie ihr Masterstudium an der Hochschule für Musik Hanns Eisler in der Klasse von Prof. Christine Schäfer und Ursula Hesse von den Steinen ab. Stimmlich wird sie nebenbei von Sami Kustaloglu betreut.

To think that the human body is entirely as it should be is, in Schmidt's view, a bit arrogant. Isn't it a pity after all that your ears can never touch each other because the head is always in between? Or why don't we have antennae, so that our senses could be more distinct.
For Schmidt, the way we position ourselves in the world says a lot about how we relate to it. Humans place themselves above other things and animals. We categorize in notions of right and wrong, sick and healthy, normal and abnormal. Schmidt wants to move away from that. She wants to overcome bodily separations.
Schmidt's installations, prosthetics and performances create a circumstance in which she demands an extension of the body, for example a tube that allows you to breath from nose to foot in order to expand the concept and the function of the lungs. These works are also vehicles that can propel the body into new transformations.
Her paintings and chalk drawings similarly display body parts and variations on their function. The accompanying texts make them reminiscent of schoolbook illustrations. Fascination becomes patently clear here.

TOM SMITH began making music at nine - shortwave radio and turntable manipulation. (Just wicked child's play, but ideas quickly coalesced.) Joined an African-American funk ensemble at 13. Within minutes of his debut, received an ear-nuzzle and a beer. Hooked. Enrolled in an electronic music class at university in 1974; joined the staff of its radio station the same year. Initial electro-acoustic compositions recorded (often in collaboration with Don Fleming) in 1975. During off-hours at the station, emboldened both by the aesthetic promise of punk and Lee Perry's titanic Super Ape, subverted production facilities to create fractured dub versions of extant, "underdone" releases. Moved to NYC in 1977; kept eyes peeled. Migrated next to Athens, Georgia; formed Boat Of (1979-83). Moved to DC, resurfaced as Peach of Immortality (1983-91). Amidst turmoil, signed on with Pussy Galore (8/85 to 2/86). Initial TLASILA demos were recorded by TS in May 1990. Smith moved to Miami in 1991 and perfected the TLASILA template. Rat Bastard and Ben Wolcott were aboard by 93-94. Moved to Germany in 2008.

is a collaboration between Camilla Sørensen (b.1978) and Greta Christensen (b. 1977), both graduated from the Royal Danish Art Academy in Copenhagen in 2007/2008.

The project is focused on the relationship between objects and sound. It is presented in different situations as installation, sculpture, composition work or as live concerts.
The work - whether it is a presented as an installation or a concert - uses sound to create a narrative that always directly refer to the medium playing it or the situation it is presented in.
The sculptural work includes amounts of various materials where the live concert focuses exclusively on LP-records and turntables.
