Chasten dragons and Dragoon chance Immobilise phantoms with a hug Like beauty’s lies in the beholder’s eyes Premembered clippings of notion pictures Clinging to the never mind Little red barrette We wonder How the memory of now Will turn out.

“Des Gesprächsfightfadens”: word of the wings stutters & flutters a language re-de-re-construction performance for two performers, video backdrop, disillustrative commentary and sound duration: ca. 45 min. DEPART’s germanguage desastroy, a veritabledance lingo-limbo. Dramatized worldplayhem. A staged piece with toadloads of glimmericks fallinglong upwards from heaven’t scene and hertz beforeplay. In DEPART’s “Des Gesprächsfightfadens” there is no dramatic plot per se as in conventional theater, but there are recurring themes and ideas, more like in a musical composition. This work relies heavily on DEPART’s belief in the controlled overflow of sensoric input.

DEPART was moved and influenced by rural scapes and urban shapes, streetart and landart growing together. leo was moved from berlin to barcelona, gregor was moved from lehen to itzling and back every day.
