Théâtre Grotesque a crossover of a theatre play/ musical/ horrorfilm/ drama in hell, a subterranean parallelworld, a strange construction is arranged: bones, wood, blood, strings, skin, a glass of wine. it detects the vibrations of human malpractice on earth and goes off when a certain level is reached. "Mon" awakes and immediately takes care that there's soon a gathering of 12 undead in hell's chamber to build up the stages of theatre grotesque. the theatre's overall picture is comparable to a clock: 12 small stages form a circle and surround a main stage in the middle. there is also a watchhand below the main stage pointing at the smaller stages and is providing a bridge to the actors and actresses to appear on their own little stage as well as on the main one. there are 12 chracters in the play, all part of an extended family whose daily life is pictured in the play. but through every single family member's misconduct on human relations the family's decay progresses until its bitter end. eventually the play releases echoes, that even reach the earth's surface. but people can only hear them when they are situated in the same parallelworld, at night, in their dreams and nightmares. the play itself is abstract, expressionistic and excessive but often also quite devotional. these are some of the play's characters: fergus: he is the head of the family and a fisherman. (there's a huge lake near the village) fergus frequently brings fish from his boat drives for his grateful family. as far as the day came when it rained black raindrops and the lake went dark. it was a shock for the whole village and after some of the villagers had died of strange deseases just a couple of days later their anxiety was boundless. they didn't dare to leave their houses, they started filtering water through insane nearly ritualisitc methods, they began to wear gas masks and avoided contact with everyone who stayed outside for a while. fergus was an exeption. he kept on going to the lake for his daily fishing inspite the worries on the part of his family. he returns hale. but with a fishing net full of deformed fishes. while he begins talking about how to cook them the rest of the family is scared and not even imagining eating them. he gets angry and eats them himself. although the fishes seem uneatable, even undigestible, fergus doesn't end fishing (now only for himself). he's not able to eat all of the distortet fish, so they are simply nailed on the wall in the basement. seeing his fishes as trophys of his doings fergus is isolated more and more from the others and spends most of his time on the lake (unless he is not nailing fishes on the foul-smelling wall). one day fergus does not return from his exceeding fishing trips. a severe storm rolls in and pulls away after days but fergus remains missing. the lake is clear again and the people take a chance to go outside. finally they find a corpse flushed on land. they recognize him as fergus but his body is bloated and his head deformed to the one of a giant fish. in the play, fergus is not exactly doing all the action as described. it will be transformed into something abstract, e.g. thread-auntie: she sews living people together with her thread, so that these connected humans rip their own skin off as soon as they try to move freely. actually she weaves a web of connections, human relations between people who don't get along with each other. they hurt themselves and others by breaking out of this web. thread-auntie's drive is her imminent death she is trying to escape from. her threads are the connections between her and the world of the living. 2. Embryo a nearly surreal vision of the future going through the process of people changing their lives into a situation in which they don't have any connections to the reality anymore. after they are controlling their environment physically only by thinking (there'll be special kinds of technical inventions) people are "turning inside", perceiving virtual images by brain-implanted software generating them based on the human's brain's activities. mankind continues living in dream-worlds they created themselves. the first thing that happens is that their muscles and gradually their whole body degenerates because there is no more physical resistance that could keep the organism growing or at least staying in form. subsequently they are put into cysts filled with protecting liquid. at the same time of the physical "embryonization" humans regress mentally because of the same reason on the psychological level. finally, evolution lead into the beginnings of every human's life. so, i had an ulterior motive regarding embryo: basically it starts with the difference between apes and humans. humans are more intelligent and as a consequence they built up a complex communication system, environments for a better collective living in society and standardized action. this affects evolution in relationship to the cycle of life. humans are "generating" knowledge and reach maturity, in other words, also to fully understand the meaning of their knowledge. transfer of knowledge leads to greater development which is the starting point for a quick evolution primarily defining the humans' psychological state. as this so called knowledge is part of every born human's environment its acquirement turns into a condition to participate in society, to survive. the base is called civilisation, that is including norms assuming maturity. but is maturity as well transferred over generations? in my view, humans are used to reach inner understanding through experience in time and confrontations. when knowledge of a generation is built on top of development, only the society's norms' requirements towards maturity decide on the people's mental maturation. but through this, also just the top of development, evolution, civilisation is understood thoroughly and this is not more effective than leading to the temporary implementation of the society's norms. to sum it up, understanding is happening on a different level than the essential experience of development. maturity and the state of development are both defining the humans' action. as there is a "dysbalance" there is the danger of misuse depending on time(just like a little baby being confronted with a telephone device). this danger is to be described in embryo. progressively fading into the beginnings of a life's cycle should be demonstrating the broken relationship between the cycle and evolution, the state of maturity and development. i don't know, if you could understand what i was thinking and trying to write, anyway, i'm not sure wheter you can say that and... sorry for this english ^^ 3. Cirque Expilatio a bizarre and expressionistic exploitation-drama 4. El Alacrán some kind of a poetic western movie. 5. System-Destruction-Trilogy 6. Reverse Existance an art film about my theory of 3 dimensions of empathy collapsing 7. Docu-grotes-scary i originally thought of these documentaries about the ethically questionable functioning of food industry. (like how they produce chicken meat for kfc) they're quite shocking in my view; chickens are treated like lifeless objects, thrown around, jumped on by the workmen, hurt and fed till they're not able to do any more than to lie on the belly, suffering. and then they're hung onto hooks headlong and killed by blades. however, some survive and their feathers are ripped out as they're still alive. so they are not dead until some other blades slit their bodies open. as i said, this pretty much left a mark on me. how impressive would it then be to see the things verbatim from an animal's point of view? but not as a documentary but as a horror film with documentary influences. the main character would then be a chicken in a narrow, dark gangway of a laying battery. for the first hour or so you'd only see pipes and bars through the dark from the inside of a cage, in which a chicken is not able to move (so the camera would also move only slightly). thus an intense audio would be highly important. you'd begin communicating with the chickens besides you. (imagine chicken-language to consist of keywords only. they'd appear to us like abstract and rythmic poems maybe? e.g. "nrroise-gruuh-drenchh-dirt-t-clungh" oO) every now and then an administrator wearing huge leather gloves would pass by, looking for dead chickens to take out of their cage and drop onto a wheel barrow. like all the other chickens you'd eat the food in front of you. you begin hallucinating, thinking of the chickens and yourself to become humans just like the ones who come by at times. mixed faces of chickens and humans. you turn to think the way humans do. all this gets stronger continually. you become aware of your situation and want to escape. finally you stop eating and lose consciousness. when you wake up you find yourself in one of these large halls among thousands of other chicken. i'm not quite sure how it'd proceed but i suppose it's not going to be nice... 8. 717 60 9.
