+ Info
#Corazón de Robota – Handcrafted love synths and electronic anarchy
Corazón de Robota (aka Constanza Piña) works in various fields including new media, dance, performance, focusing in DIY synthesizers, electronic textiles and wearable technology. She focuses on experimentation with electronic media, free technologies and DIWO methodologies (do it with others / let’s do it together). Her work explores noise as a sonorous, political and cultural phenomenon. She reflects on human/non-human technological assemblages and the role of machines in our culture, questioning academia, anthropocentrism, capitalism and techno-hetero-patriarchy as agents that oppose open knowledge and the valorization of manual technical work. https://corazonderobota.wordpress.com
Teresa Riemann is a multiinstrumentalist that started to learn the piano when she was 6 years old. She abandoned classical education at age 16 and started to explore different instruments on her own: guitar, cello and – since 2012 – the drums. Since then she has developed her very unique style of convulsive percussion meanwhile being fully conscious about every tone she plays and the precise moment it is going to break into being. She accompanies her drumming with the eclectic use of her fragmented voice, spontaneously reciting frazzles of the living memory of humankind. Apart from her solo projects on drums and piano, she plays in the groups Shake the Train and Naked in the Zoo. https://soundcloud.com/teresariemann/no-such-thing-like-home

Komm rHein
by Roya Noorinezhad
Time: 19:00
Exploring the intricacies of borders and the multifaceted concept of identity, this round discussion draws inspiration from the artist’s personal experiences as a migrant in Europe and U’s involvement on the Italian-French border. Additionally, U’s keen observations of the political situation in Iran have further fueled U’s artistic endeavors.
Residing in Basel, situated along the enchanting Rhein River, the artist’s motivation led to the inception of „komm rHein “ — a thought-provoking series aimed at illuminating the repetitive cycles that trap individuals within the confines of persistent border struggles. Through this round discussion, the artist embarks on a dialogue that seeks effective approaches and innovative forms of presentation, enabling a comprehensive exploration of diverse materials.
The round discussion and coming around with Roya showcases a compelling fusion of various artistic mediums, including photographs, videos, profound texts, geometric shapes, graphs. These elements have been meticulously collected from two distinct locations: the Rhein River Roya and the Roya River Valley.
Delving into the depths of history, the Rhein River Roya segment delves into the haunting tales of individuals who were unjustly labeled as witches and callously thrown into the depths of the Rhein River from the Mittlere Brücke in Basel. The artist, Roya, empathetically connects with these characters, further emphasizing the personal significance of this exploration as U navigates U’s own limitations in swimming ability.
Through this artistic exploration, the artist invites people to contemplate the complex interplay between borders, identity, and the human condition. By shining a light on these themes and intertwining personal experiences with historical narratives, it prompts reflection, empathy, and a deeper understanding of the profound struggles individuals face within the context of borders and society.
Attendees are encouraged to immerse themselves in this captivating journey, to engage with the artworks, and to become part of a larger conversation that transcends geographical boundaries, fostering unity and fostering an appreciation for the intricate tapestry of human experiences.
Thank you for joining us on this transformative artistic exploration.

Ausstellung: 5–10 pm – Adalbertstr. 9 und Kotti-Shop, Adalbertstr. 4
Talks: 6:30–8:00 pm – Stadtteilzentrum Familiengarten Kotti e.V. Oranienstr. 34, Hinterhof, 10999 Berlin
Samstag, 17.6., 2–8 pm | ab 8 pm Party mit Konzerten, Performances und DJ’s
Sonntag, 18.6., 2–8 pm, Filmprogramm im Kotti-Shop / Ausstellungsbesuch mit Adriana Tranca (Voranmeldung unter: speculativeproperties@gmail.com)
Das Wochenende der Protestausstellung Speculative Properties thematisiert den anhaltenden Verlust von Künstler:innen ateliers in Berlin und die Verdrängung der Künstler:innengemeinschaft in der Adalbertstraße 9. Die Ausstellung ist eine Reaktion auf die Übernahme des Gebäudekomplexes am Kottbusser Tor durch die Immobiliengesellschaft Coros Management und die damit einhergehende Vertreibung von ca. 40 lokalen und internationalen Künstler:innen und Kulturschaffenden aus ihren Atelierräumen. Die Ateliers werden zu einem Ausstellungsort, an dem die Auswirkungen des Verlustes von Arbeitsräumen und des über Jahre gewachsenen Netzwerkes reflektiert werden.
Im Rahmen dieses Projekts präsentiert der Kotti-Shop eine Ausstellung und ein Filmprogramm.
Die Ausstellung „Pflanti“ ist aus den Ergebnissen der Workshopreihe „Spüren/Spuren unserer Nachbarschaft“ hervorgegangen. Die von Talya Lubinsky und Eleni Mouzourou in Kooperation mit der Jens-Nydahl-Grundschule und dem FHXB-Museum veranstalteten Workshops führten in künstlerische Methoden der Beobachtung und Kartierung (un-)sichtbarer Transformationsprozesse am Kotti ein. Die teilnehmenden Schüler:innen konzentrierten sich auf die Koexistenz von Pflanzen im städtischen Raum und auf die Auswirkungen natürlicher Elemente auf die vom Menschen geschaffene Infrastruktur.
Ein umfangreiches Filmprogramm zeigt eine Auswahl aus Dokumentar-, Experimental- und Essayfilmen. Das Programm öffnet multikulturelle und internationale Perspektiven auf den lokalen Fall, mit dem sich die Ausstellung Speculative Properties befasst: Vertreibung, Gentrifizierung, umstrittene Stadtplanung und nachbarschaftliche Widerstandspraktiken werden an verschiedenen geografischen Orten von São Paulo bis Larnaca und in vielen Sprachen untersucht.

I am not West, I am not east
Performance by Sevgi Aka
I am not west, I am not east is performed as a response to the 350m square area legally Eastern property, which remained enclosed in the West in Bethaniendamm, Kreuzberg. This piece of land was squatted by a Turkish migrant Osman Kalın who used it agriculturally and built a gecekondu. This space offers a new look at the „wall as potential” as a testimony to the former division.
The performance deals with the inability of the relocated individuals to fully fit in one culture, trying to sustain double lives, meanwhile trying to figure out who they are in the cross sections between these two locations. The work also recalls the blind spots between who we think we are and who we truly are and the aspects of the personality that we reject, and push down into our unconscious psyches. Beneath that conscious “light” lies a whole world of “darkness”, the secret piece of the personality is the shadow self, containing those very aspects of ourselves that we have strived to ignore.

PERFECT IMMORTAL MACHINE_Record Release from Valentina Berthelon
_The album was recorded by Valentina at her home studio in Berlin and mixed at Non Standard Studios by Tobias Freund.
PERFECT IMMORTAL MACHINE
S/he is a glitch of the neoliberal era of information, a hybrid body
that enjoys the blurring of boundaries, the opportunity to shape
identities in new ways and to form alliances.
S/he is an upgrade or enhancement of possibilities, a new body
condition of total fluidity and porosity, pure flexibility.
For such a body it makes no difference on which side of the system
it is positioned.
S/he is a user and a system operator at the same time, a timeless
space, a vastness like a Matrix and a place of resistance.
S/he refuses to be categorized and demands.
Her/his right to range, experiment and try on different selves.
Valentina Berthelon, known for her visual work as a media artist on projects like Recent Arts produced her first full-length album. Expressing herself as a sound artist is a new territory for Valentina. Her experience as a DJ gave her a special kind of rhythmical understanding but her love of experimental music led her to this production of vocal collages combined with a rhythm corset and harmonic layers.

#Zeynep Sarikartal (1985, Ankara) is a sound-artist, improviser and researcher. ZS ZS live performances are about exploring and merging harsh, rhythmical and atmospheric soundscapes together with text and field recordings within a dramaturgical concept. ZS ZS invents rules, uses short stories and fragments of news for each performance and defines specific technical limitations for each show. zszszszszszszs.wordpress.com/
# Performed with sewing machines turned into noise boxes, Agente Costura’s improvisations are based on stitching and mending. The repetitiveness of an amplified machine is layered with melodic features of self made wearable electronic instruments, combined within a thrilling visual performance. Lisa Simpson plays solo and in different constellations of artists, musicians, dancers, and curious audiences. https://agentecostura.art/
#Melissa Dullius and Gustavo Jahn form DISTRUKTUR. https://distruktur.com/
Distruktur’s work takes shape as films, installations, film performances, photography, text and graphic.
#Kotti-Shop_TvTv (AT)“ is a TV station between the digital space and the physical urban space in the block forecourt of the New Kreuzberg Center at Kottbusser Tor. Sentimental Punk is a non-commercial research gathering based on gema free live improvisations.

END OF STORY live #003: Novo Line + Estelle Quarino
For Kotti-Shop, Novo Line(Berlin) and performer/visual artist Estelle Quarino (Geneva) present a sound-movement collaboration, uniting the Novo Line Prime* project with Quarino’s own sound-movement persona**
Piezo sensors within a bespoke latex bodysuit are manipulated by Quarino’s movements and transformed immediately to MIDI information in the Novo Line universe; transposed, transformed, and recapitulated with live effects. This feedback loop creates a living circuit connecting movement and sound, fostering an environment of indirect control of each performer’s own intuited process.
*Novo Line Prime is a performatory experiment exploring the extinct art of cassette tape-sync, allowing pre-recorded sounds to sync with live instrumentation. The recordings allow the classic Novo Line studio sounds and a more varied complexity to be delivered on 2- and 4-track cassette via tape collage. The approach shares the obtuse poly-ostinato and intuitive unplanned ethos of our pre-pandemic world Novo Line with a new sensitivity, directed towards saturated textures, ambient feelings, and aperitivi.

**Estelle Quarino, perfomer / visuel artist / special effect makeup artist and props maker for film and theater – Explores the creative process using different artistic disciplines with the aim of assembling various project perspectives related to the body in space, inspired by different dance techniques such as butoh and classical dance allowing to incorporate strange gesture, sculptural material, sound, texture, sensory and emotions.
