The Clarice Lispector Project
The Clarice Lispector Project takes the silences in and between the fragments of Lispector's chronicles and responds to them with longform drones. These drones tend to silence themselves through the e

Exercises in Minimalism revisited
The present work originates from an intimate engagement with a personal sound archive. In 2017, I recorded the interior resonance of an upright piano that had accompanied my childhood — an instrument now lost, along with the family home in which it stood. These recordings, focusing on the raw timbral qualities of the strings, became the basis for Exercises in Minimalism (2018).

Fo(u)r Cellos (A homage to Tony Conrad)
Fo(u)r Cellos (A homage to Tony Conrad) explores how sounds that are usually considered disruptive or incidental can be transformed into music. Rather than separating noise and music, the piece asks the listener to hear both as part of the same spectrum, where order and structure can emerge from what first seems chaotic. The work begins with the sounds of a gate—the creak of its hinges, the metallic rasp of a latch.

Tales of Audrey (new release)
Audrey is a queer persona emerging from an ongoing experimental musical project. She is not a fixed character, but a performative construct—unruly, unstable, and deliberately unresolved. Through fragmented narratives, sonic dissonance, and affective instability, Audrey challenges the demand for coherence. Her queerness is not symbolic—it is structural. Moments of failure, distortion, or silence are not mistakes but intentional gestures that expose and interrupt the systems—social, cultural, musical—that insist on clarity and conformity.

Die AfD ist ja die Partei, die immer wieder betont, dass es Pflicht der Politik ist, das zu tun, was die Mehrheit der Bevölkerung will.

Das ist jetzt mal so richtig blöd!

AfD unter Druck: Mehrheit der Deutschen für Verbotsverfahren
Ein Verfassungsschutz-Gutachten erkennt in der AfD eine rechtsextremistische Partei. Die Rufe nach einem Verbot werden lauter. Der Hardliner Krah gerät auch juristisch unter Druck.

If the Trump administration wanted to oppose antisemitism, they could start with themselves. They are trivializing the concept of antisemitism, making it meaningless — and that is a terrible antisemitic action.

Autism isn’t an epidemic. It's not a disease. It’s a natural variation in how people think…which, frankly, is a relief in a world where most people don't think at all.

"We can react by seeing all of this for what it is, and naming it by name: incipient state terror. We can react by associating ourselves with others who are repressed before we are. Only in solidarity do we affirm law."
"the president defied a Supreme Court ruling to return a man mistakenly sent to a gulag... and spoke of sending Americans to foreign concentration camps.
This is the beginning of an American policy of state terror, and it has to be identified as such to be stopped"

It’s an obvious point but apparently we have to keep making it: when Trump weakens Ukraine he created the conditions for a longer and bloodier war.

Russia’s leaders have said nothing about peace. They have made a list of demands on the US, the fulfillment of which allows them to broaden the war against Ukraine. And the US simply fulfills all of these Russian demands without question. That is only a peace process in the Orwellian sense.

Erstaunlich dass es im ORF noch immer keinen Beitrag gibt, der Kickls Sabotage des BVT, seine Kontakte zu Rechtsextremen und Corona-Leugnern aufzeigt oder zumindest ein paar seiner Hassreden (etwa in Wieselburg).
