Philosophy Shows

Since 2002 I have been presenting philosophical performances. My formats show the philosophical WHAT through the HOW, stemming from political and everyday problems, which are being discussed and exposed on a discursive as well as on a non-discursive level. The shows always imply improvisational parts and public involvement. Every event, though each one is different, implies an invitation for the audience to participate.

Performance Philosophy Symposium, January 29/30, Ampere, Munich Germany

What is “becoming animal” (Deleuze/Guattari) like? When does a gesture become subversive? Is thinking always parasitic?
