20:00
mimesis and passim (with Xavier Lopez)
Two multimedia performances focussing on text, and emphasising the creative aspect of reading.

26/2 & 27/2

a twitcher’s guide to prenzlauer berg (with Anna Bernhardt) and errata (from the words in trees series)
A zine and an installation which uses language as a navigational device.

18:00-22:00
