April 4th will be the opening night of the Bauhaus year in Weimar. Max Schreiner, Anke Heelemann und Stefan Kraus will create an opening performance with me doing docu-cam.
I’ve worked with Max in the past as camera man for his final project at the Bauhaus University May 2008 and for another performance at the zeitraumexit, Mannheim. Here’s a video of the first performance.
“The team of directors uses the drama as lynchpin for its contemporary discourse about the inertia of the past and the forceful supersession of the coming. With its camera man Felix Obée it presents a prime example for live video on stage along the way.”

The performance created by Felix Ensslin and Markus Schmickler was staged in course of the conference “Spieltrieb” in Weimar. I filmed one of Brock Enrights commercial “kidnappings” that took place backstage at the same time. The pictures of the tortured woman were projected on a screen on stage.
