An open conversation around the history and practices of the Ueinzz Theatre Company – a radical Brazilian schizoscenic theatre company of carers, so-called psychotic patients and philosophers.
Repetitive, mesmerizing rhythmic workouts, to pieces of stark and rigorous introspection, where notes picked and slid in isolation, scatter like mercury around the listener.
An improvisation that may or may not involve (typical) improvisation.

Complexly interacting colossal drones by the creator of some of the most legendary yet least heard music of the 70’s.
Intriguing, underground, Berlin based musicians interested in the borders between music and theatre, language, the visual arts, politics.
