Bad Words

“To live by night is to live by ear, and the eye will follow.”
– Etel Adnan

Based on various works, the audio series Bad Words creates a place for a different way of speaking about language and literature, for approaching a new sense of language. From talks, readings, voice messages, field recordings and music, a walk-in space of multiple voices is created. On this evening, it will be HKW’s auditorium where all contributing writers, artists and musicians of the series will come together for a live performance. The idea is: We start from one text so that another one can begin.

With Don Mee Choi,Sophia Eisenhut, Athena Farrokhzad, Joshua Groß, Lama El Khatib, Hanne Lippard, Enis Maci, Thuy-Han Nguyen-Chi, Wouter Rentema, Tanasgol Sabbagh, Fabian Saul, Miriam Stoney, Karosh Taha, Senthuran Varatharajah, Uljana Wolf and with texts by Ilse Aichinger and Etel Adnan
