1. In der Bar um die Ecke / multimedia performance / Powerplant [GER]

Powerplant creates 'instant movies' from scenes played out in miniature. The 'live movie' that arises is projected directly on large screens so every detail of the 'acetylene torch' burnt models can be seen. The multi media performance "In der bar um die Ecke" (In the bar around the corner) portrays a highly mutated landscape in the year 2087 following World War VII. Read more >>

5. Together - Live (AKA Tundra & Commu) / live set / [NL]

Commu (dj) & Tundra (producer, sound-designer) know each other for a long time now. Musically growing up together at venue De Kelder in Amersfoort, they accidently met each other through their mutual passion for electronic music. Both skilled and experienced in performing, they will perform a special synced-laptop & FX live-set kind of thing, infusing existing records with a new twist and composition, without losing the sense of energy or interaction.
