So I experienced that working with her in my own experience as an artist, but also I see it in the shows and it's like, it's amazing.
I'm almost like kind of addicted to seeing performances and ballets right now.
I see them over and over, which is like brings me there very often.
And also I think it has to do with me not having a very linear socialization as an artist, if you want to say that, that the cultural experiences that I'm confronted with more, like leaving Germany to live somewhere else or like this weirdly coming down of the...
Berlin Wall and of the Iron Curtain, 89, because I didn't even like really live through this.
It was more the experience of the generations before me that was like profound there.
But then I talk about it so many times because it was kind of important that I grew up in the West or that the first years of my life, it's still something that's impressive of people going on the streets together.
Even like other historical waves that are there with that experience.
I think one of the most interesting cultural experiences are when people go on the street.
And if I was part of it, it's like numbers of people moving.
It's like something very, very...
moving to me and what it can do that's maybe one of the moments where I had a very interesting cultural experience in terms of movement and I think it's maybe lame because it's so shared and it's not very individual but like Obama becoming president was one of the
most moving like cultural experience that happened a shift in that presidency and then there was one thing I think like this is what I more noted down when I saw your question was that I was in Paris to see Bill Forsyth before his retirement like he's still stating pieces all over the world but it was this one moment where he was showing his last piece it was a variety of I think five pieces and he showed like
one that's called Quintet.
And it was like this one 30 seconds loop that he built the whole piece on.
The piece is a long piece.
I don't know the minutes exactly, but it's this 30 seconds loop that is a recording on the street of a man singing.
It was so impressive to me.
