Fragments of original dance performance for free interpreters created for 4 + 4 Days in Motion festival 2011 in solo perfornance. A woman lost somewhere in a sandy landscape - in a pit with no bottom, in a chasm without ladders. Reconciled with her fate and adapted to life in an unfavourable place where no one else can live. An ever-present light from the watchtower doesn't allow her to sleep nor to dream.
Do you like action? Want to play around in places that you previously only walked past given them a second thought? Then try out this extraordinary experience in ordinary life, an innovative "street games" project on an invisible playground in the streets of Prague.

IQ+1 -The IQ+1 improv ensemble can be described as "site & moment-specific," since its works are always unique, created at a given moment, in a give place. The group is inspired not only from the venue and its sound qualities, but also from the current make-up of the ensemble, which can change at will.
RUiNU- This three-member band associated with the KlaNGundKRaCH label performs music on the boundary between noise and free improv. Their combination of various kinds of electronics with brass instruments gives the listener the unshakable feeling that the world is full of potential ruins.
