Schlechte Wörter / Bad Words
Schlechte Wörter / Bad Words is an audio series and sonic arts project. Collaborating with a dynamic ensemble of writers, artists and thinkers, the project endeavors to sculpt immersive sonic landscapes that probe the depths of linguistic expression. The series invites participants and listeners to traverse the thresholds of meaning, engaging with language in its rawest and most transformative forms. From talks, readings, voice messages, field recordings and music, a tactile space of multiple voices is created with changing guests. The agreement is: We begin with one text so a new one can arise.
An audio series by Fabian Saul and Mathias Zeiske. In collaboration with Center for Literature and CCA Berlin – Center for Contemporary Arts. Presented by Das Wetter
