“While he forth from the closet brought a heap
Of candied apple, quince, and plum, and gourd;
With jellies soother than the creamy curd.” – Keats
An evening of experimental poetry and multimedia performance. Including very special guest Justin Katko who will be travelling from England to perform for us.
Justin Katko
All-American poet and special high priest of honour, sultan of sentiment, aesthetic judiciary and visually stimulante Justin Katko, will be performing a selection from The Death of Pringle, a dramatic lyric opera sung to original computer-programmed music:
“THE FREE PRINGLE BRINGS NEWS OF THE IMPERIAL MACHINATIONS TO THE PEOPLE. THE POETS WELCOME THIS TALKING COMMODITY AND ATTEND TO ITS SPEECH; BUT THE PEOPLE, BLINDED BY THE EASE OF THEIR FREEDOM, FAIL TO LISTEN TO THIS PIECE OF THEIR FOOD. IT IS THUS THAT THE FATE OF THE COMMONS AND AUTONOMY ITSELF IS AN IMPERATIVE FUNCTION OF THE EFFICACY OF THE POETS’ SONG. WILL THEIR LYRICS BE WELL ENOUGH ADVANCED TO HIJACK THE TECHNOITOPIAN SCHEMING OF THE IMPERIAL REGIME? CAN A PRINGLE REALLY DIE?”

Steven Lavender
Concrete dunt/damage texts w/ stereopathic cassette accompaniment.
Live debut!
New work performed by Berlin resident Mr S.Warwick, known for his musical explorations into the braindrain cosmos as Heatsick or as the elatory duo Birds of Delay.
Edward Luker
Another barbaric expat indulging in the over-furtive pastures of Berlin who refuses to understand anything at all ever. A lyrical luddite goading the bourgy mofos to dismantle their genetic opulence, Edward Luker will be reading something in some capacity to some people who somehow find themselves trapped.
You can see examples of his work at http://dumbflux.wordpress.com
Jeroen Nieuwland
Another Berlin resident, originally born from the Netherlands, Jeroen promises me that he will also be reading something and we shall tremble.
