As the duo User Syndrome, the circuit-bending Beirut-based artist Rhéa Dally and improvising lyricist Freya Edmondes aka Elvin Brandhi will jump from their free-fall of failing reality internalistion to interrogate »Sustain« with a work titled »IRL IRL IRL IRL IRL IRL IRL IRL.« How would we sustain today? The work is commissioned by the CTM Radio Lab which is a project by Deutschlandfunk Kultur – Hörspiel / Klangkunst and CTM Festival in collaboration with Goethe-Institut, ORF musikprotokoll im steirischen herbst, Ö1 Kunstradio, and tekhnē.

»Inverted Vertigo« by Heith and Berlin-based visual artist duo DECLINO is an exploration of the ritualistic dimensions of live music through an audiovisual show, where the audience plays the role of viewer and active participant. Through an oracular totem that sits in the centre of the room, the show collapses the boundaries between real and imagined, summoning new psychic dimensions through dreamlike encounters.
