Collobjects
Collobjects was a sound performance written and performed in cooperation with Michel Winterberg. As a part of Transformat Kleinbasel artistic research, the artists summarised their impressions about fading urban diversity and expanding gentrification. Their setting was a colourful combination of an operating theatre and a cooking-show table. They collected all kinds of edible and inedible objects, snacks and drinks from groceries of varying cultures of Kleinbasel. They created a soundscape while ‘serving’ the results of the noises: sometimes tasty, sometimes inedible snack-creations like nails in wine or candies with chilli sauce. With this gesture, they expressed the colourful everyday life of diverse cultures, living peacefully together. They also reflected their role as an artist, in the process of urban changes.
