Aaargh! Apart from being filled up with lots and lots of things, my life is incredibly messy at the moment. The only place I can currently call a ‚home‘ is extremely unstable and I am growing tired of it.
Still, there’s quite a bit of nice stuff happening that I consider myself happy to be a part of.
For instance, I have a few small and playful sculptures in a very nice show in Brixton at the moment. I failed at writing about it earlier because I didn’t have much internet access for the last few weeks. Oh well.
Yeah:

Liebe Frankfurter/Offenbacher/Umfeldianer,
Ich wurde von Lichter Streetview eingeladen, am 22.-23. 3. in der Frankfurter Innenstadt eine neue Performance/Intervention mit dem Namen ‚Gazillion Gazebo‘ zu präsentieren:
An audio-visal live performance/installation loosely based on the overflow of information encountered in an urban environment. Operating a laboratory of Warstware (circuit bent video and sound equipment), Simon Schäfer alias der Warst transforms a customary gazebo into both an immersive environment and a vibrant public sculpture.
Leider haben sich jetzt Probleme ergeben, die es den Lichterleuten leider nicht ermöglichen, mir die erforderliche Technik zur Verfügung zu stellen. Das ist ärgerlich, ich fände es allerdings sehr schade, wenn dadurch die ganze Sache ins Wasser fallen müsste. Also ist DIY angesagt.
Ich brauche für die Realisation des Projektes folgendes:
Wenn ihr irgend etwas von der obigen Liste habt, das ich für zwei Nächte ausleihen kann oder irgend jemanden wisst, der mir hier weiterhelfen könnte, möchte ich euch bitten, mir so schnell wie möglich bescheid zu sagen.
Usually, I don’t talk publicly about stuff that I just sent out, having no idea how the other side is gonna pick it up. I spent hours and hours today thinking about how to write two sentences. After having actively avoided to think about them for some days. And then it just had to be done. No time, no time.
And here it was. After hours of trying to formulate some farty crap to impress whomever:

I really want to do this. Hopefully it’s gonna work…
Woooo!
finally, the first opportunity to see Visuals from my new Machine in BIIIG! And they are absolutely GORGEOUS.
So Please, all come to Rob Bellman’s Show Capt. Hardy Taste the Gumbo
TODAY (Friday) at 6.

It’s been close to a year now since I had the Night Shift show at Simon Oldfield Gallery. Yesterday, I was surprised in a very very nice way by Rebecca Helen Page, who has filmed bits of the performance I’ve done there and uploaded them to Vimeo.
It was quite a noisy performance with very weird sound and I had very short hair at that time.
The desk I had my instruments on was absolutely gorgeous. It felt like my own private TARDIS.

Thanks a lot Rebecca.
