23.04.2026 The Ellipses with Vinyl-terror & -horror
26.04.2026 The Ellipses with Mieko Suzuki
Two performance evenings dedicated to the connecting instrument, the turntable, at Tanzhalle Wiesenburg, Berlin, with The Ellipses (JD Zazie, Claudia Schmitz) and guest artists Vinyl-terror & -horror (23 April) and Mieko Suzuki (26 April)
In a congenial crossover of analogue and digital gestures, of regular and unhinged rotations, clear and broken narratives with gaps, sound and moving images, the artists raise questions about the culture of memory, data archiving and the meaningfulness of media boundaries and temporality, technology and human experience. By questioning their own perspectives and searching for new references, they confront their own fallibility and, through collective experience, expand their own perceptions by developing a new trans-medial language and opening up its interpretability to discussion with the audience. The subtitle gap, data loss, skip deliberately refers to the trans-disciplinary significance of ellipses and related topics such as freedom of communication, cultures of conversation, cross-genre translation, and the questioning of media boundaries.
