Half performance – half lecture

How do we relate to our surroundings, to place, space and time – in different landscapes and cultures?

This performance lecture deals with our view on mankind’s role on earth – in Western culture and in a Centralasian nomade culture.

How do we navigate in the country side and in cities? Is man the measure of all things?

You are invited to an untraditional mix of thoughts, pictures, discussions, tea and guest appearances.
