BODYBUILDING Schauspiel mit Puppen für Erwachsene. "Der Mensch ist ein Modell, das ständig revidiert wird, angepasst den Bedürfnissen der Zeit und keine feste Größe. Wer bestimmt also, was gerade noch ein Mensch ist? CedoxX will mit dieser Öffentlichkeitsoffensive über die verschiedenen Möglichkeiten des Körpers allgemein informieren." In "Bodybuilding"
geht es nicht um muskelbepackte Kerle. Vielmehr ist dies im wörtlichen
Sinne zu verstehen, es geht um das „Bauen“ des menschlichen
Körpers, schließlich auch um dessen Fragmentierung in einzelne
Bausteine. "Manche sind ja schon Auslaufmodelle, andere schon die Vorboten eines geneuerten Menschen." Stefan Spitzer als
Ole Jannsen – Creative Director ca. 60 min

Filmreihe: Sexualität und Familie in Utopia- ein Blick zurück und einer nach vorn Die Sehnsucht nach Utopia war in den meisten historischen kommunitären und kommunistischen Gemeinschaften mit einer Kritik von patriarchalen familiären Gemeinschaften, Zwangsmonogamie und autoritärer Unterordnung als Erziehungsprinzip verknüpft. Stattdessen wurde die befreite Gesellschaft und der neue Mensch im 19. und 20. Jh. mit freier Sexualität, Befreiung der Frauen, Wahlverwandtschaften und anderen Formen der Auflösung von Familie und Geschlechterverhältnissen verbunden. Die Filme unserer Reihe werfen einen Blick zurück nach vorne, zu den Wunschmaschinen der Vergangenheit. In diesem Spiegel werden zugleich die queeren und antinormativen Sehnsüchte der Gegenwart thematisierbar als Struktur mit neuer Dominante. Gastgeberinnen der
unabgeschlossenen Filmreihe: Children

Dance Camp 2010 programme
Dear movers, Boody-Shakers, Floor-Twisters, Crab-Grab-Dancers, Performance Theorists, Body Experts (and novices!), Stretching Dogs, Invention Bouncers, Non-dancing Theorists who sometimes move, and Non-moving Theorists who sometimes dance! The Second Annual of Dance Camp has come & we'd like to invite you to indulge in one week of d.I.y movement experimentation! It will take place in the third week of August from 14th to 21st, like last year in the Raumerweiterungshalle. This time we'll be kicking off with an Opening Event including a lecture presentation and party (with awesome performances, bands & DJs) on Saturday the 14th! In the year since Addressing Movement Dance Camp has throbbed and morphed in varying formations: technique sessions, vogueing through snow, xing street styles from Single Ladies to Spongebob to Metalobics and yoga on concrete block. Having entered the endless bliss of discovering the layered world of street styles this DanceCamp2010 will be a two-toned medley of intertwining themes with a call out for participants who are willing to tune into a collaborative development of our own street style, a street style of ones own! ...to discover a mover style in which all the questions that linger since last years Dance Camp can be bodily spoken (or muscularily mumbled): How do we move in the multi-layered concepts of urban landscapes? What about everyday bodily language and work in cultural economy? Where are we in behavioural spaces? How do we move in daily life? Topping it up with our secondary theme: An inquisitive look into, and on, couple behaviour and reproduction! (And we don't just mean babies, O.K.). Structure-wise we are un-strictly splitting the daily program into three sessions of experimentation: Pump (incl. danceobics, metalobics and video imitation). Health (incl. body techniques, shiatsu and yoga stretch). Street! (over to our focus project: a collaborative research into street style Lichtenberg-Treptow). Our Contact: berlindancecamp [at] gmail [dot] com Check www.shittingemeralds.com/dancecamp2010 more info about the program and opening event. |

Films by Liz Rosenfeld Liz Rosenfeld is a Berlin based artist utilizing modes of performance through film and video in order to convey a sense of past and future histories through moving images. Her current work deals primarily with issues of queer identity, revisionist history, cruising, transient bodies, pop culture icons and different kinds of public and private transitional space. Liz’s work is invested in concepts of how we remember our own history, as well as how and where we identify ourselves with community. The linage of traditions such as family portraiture, re-enactment, archiving, and communal gatherings, are important themes present throughout her work. She is intent on examining the possibility of more within the multitude, as opposed to a final end, or what could be called the orgasmic moment. Liz’s film,
video and performance work has been shown internationally including
venues such as The Kitchen, The Hammer Museum, The Impakt Organization,
the Victoria & Albert Museum, The Edinburgh Fringe Festival , The
National Museum for Women in the Arts, Chicago Filmmakers, and many
international film festivals. Her new film ‘Frida & Anita,’
is slated to premier at The British Film Institute in November 2010. |

schön&absurd&schief&gerade: acoustic concerts at REH am kommenden freitag den 16/7 spielen 3 entzückende bands akustisch in der raumerweiterungshalle... kommt vorbei und geniesst den abend mit uns!! nach der musik
kommt mehr musik mit COMBINEHARVESTER ist Marlon Mc Neill: «Ich schreibe alle Songs und spiele meistens auch alle Instrumente. Ich sehe meine Lieder nicht im Sinne klassischer Rock-Songs sondern eher als Musik die sich um kleine Gedichte hüllt. Gedichte, manchmal so kurz dass sie locker als Einzeiler durchgehen könnten. Es bedarf nicht vieler Worte um zu sagen was gesagt werden muss. Die Leute würden mich wohl in die Singer/Songwriter Schublade stecken. Weil ich Singe und Songs schreibe. Das kann treffend sein, aber genau so gut auch nicht. Alles ist möglich. Ein Song kann als 15 minütige Drone Eskapade enden, oder als 30 Sekunden bei-nahe-A Capella Stück. Man kann Combineharvester als Knotenpunkt aller oder einiger Projekte in die ich involviert bin interpretieren, oder umgekehrt: die Grundlage und Inspiration verschiedenster musikalischer Kuriositäten.» DOOMENFELS
ist Therapie. Ein Mensch, eine akustische Gitarre und ein Hit-Organ
zwischen Pathos, Turnschuhen und Geburtstagskuchen. Zurückgelehnt,
ruhig, fein arrangierte Songs mit dem Händchen für grosse
Momente und zerbrechliche Melodien. |

My Body Is Yours: The Films of Michael V. Smith My Body Is Yours: The short films in My Body Is Yours investigate the many faces of desire, from highly personal confessions to frank sexuality. Intimately grounded in the human body and grown from the word, Michael V. Smith’s film work is a candid marriage of his writing to his performance art. An established Canadian novelist and poet, Smith has been an active member of the alternative queer cabaret scene in Vancouver, British Columbia, where he was named one of the city’s Most Dangerous People and also one of its most influential gay citizens. My Body Is Yours is a portrait of a writerly genderqueer performance artist at play. films to be screened: femme |

SURPRISINGLY PROFESSIONAL – the fundraiser at Raumerweiterungshalle for the d.i.y feature film project 'Aidan and Gilbert'. The story about two gay trans men caught in the ups and downs of their testosterone injected second adolescence between relationships, polyamoury, Berlin's night life, dates, art, jobs, sex and the fun and trouble those things can cause. Get wasted and waste
yourself! Aidan and Gilbert is a d.i.y feature film project about two gay trans men: Gilbert is a student,
artist and tranny fag. He enjoys having sex, but he is bored by picking
up other lads at parties or on the internet. His fantasies differ too
much from what he has got from reality so far. Aidan is a rather
quiet and withdrawn boy. He searches the web for people to spank him,
father figures and other trans guys to hang out with. One night Aidan coincidently hits Gilbert's internet escort profile. Being disgusted and fascinated at the same time he has to open the profile over and over again. After a long time of hesitation he decides to rent Gilbert to try out sex with another man. A deep friendship
develops, while they accompany each other throughout the ups and downs
of their testosterone injected second adolescence between relationships,
polyamoury, Berlin's night life, dates, art, jobs, sex and the fun and
trouble those things can cause. |

CONCERT We are very happy to invite you to Les Cox (Sportifs) -UK- and Samanta ------ the dream gig of the very belated Berlin spring-summer season! Les Cox (Sportifs)'s music is like waking up wired on a sunny day, wanting to dance, but still feeling down from booze and heartbreak. Christo, Chris and Micheal´s music is both focused and distracted, fast and slow, folk and punk all at the same time.They are charming kidz, fueled and sweet who mix calm countryside dreams with city hyperactivity. We’ve been waiting for them to come to Berlin for a long time! Samanta make songs in the most real and simple way, drowning us in melodramatic retro spacial tunes. Samanta sounds like radio songs from a long time ago. Words in spanish of broken romance and disillusionment, futuristic melodies mixed with clumsy and beautiful choreographies on stage. Expect to have your emotions heightened and awaken! All Mega Star Disc Jock Team before, in-between and after: Wilde Oscar Tiger
Ben overloading your mind with dancefloor classics. |

/// DOCUMENTATION ACTIVISM /// TRANSGENDER
DAY OF REMEMBRANCE by Sean Hennig, 15mins, Berlin 2008 two excellent films that we united under the label of "documentation activism". A parallel between the films is that both video artist and fiction filmmaker Sean Hennig (who will be present) and experimental filmmaker Su Friedrich abandon their established styles of working for the activist pieces. The focus of this programme is to highlighten the power of documentation and the visibility and preservation of political activism emerging from it. While Sean Hennig depicted the 2008 Transgender Day of Remembrance mainly "to give a memory to the people who went out into the freezing cold to demonstrate" as he puts it, what we see is a cruelly touching piece on the ongoing violence against transgendered people. In "The Lesbian Avengers Eat Fire Too" Su Friedrich documents the distinct, original and empowering forms of protest of the Lesbian Avengers, a direct action group founded in New York and "focused on issues vital to lesbian survival and visibility." Apart from protest documentation, Su Friedrich uses interviews with the members of the group, many of which are involved in a lesbian activist group for the first time. The film becomes a very interesting document of both creative activism and the lives and issues of lesbian women in the early 90's. |

A retrospective of subversive small-format performance films by Juli Saragosa "Turning the camera on myself is a strategy I use to subvert the norms of dominant cinematic discourses and unfix the patriarchal gaze. DIY (do-it-yourself) is enabled through the simplicity of super8mm as a tool to self-represent my image and voice. Trickster motifs play "in-between" realms subtly and viscerally through these intimate and vulnerable portraits." |
